Relics - matchot - 02-08-2009 And last up for tonight is this Ford C/???? Tanker which formerly served the Hoffman's,NY FD as Tanker-212, also in the same junkyard. Relics - paganores10cue - 02-08-2009 Thw Hi-Ranger belonged to Rescue Hose Co. 1 in Cheektowaga NY, I do not know the year or numbers on it, that is Dave's department. I watched that rig work on a few fires as a kid, was a nice piece. Relics - John Kenealy - 02-08-2009 The yellow Ward LaFrance marked for the Explorer post is from Niskayuna # 2 NY in Schenectady County. The 700 Series American LaFrance is from Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory also in Schenectady County. Hoffmans is a defunct department, it was taken over by West Glenville NY. Relics - Guest - 02-09-2009 Found this American Lafrance at Slagles fire in Columbia, SC. At first glance I thought it was a Seagrave. I'm not sure year or model. I have never seen an ALF like this before. When I took the pic it was a Sat. and they were closed and it was behind a fence. Any Ideas? ![]() Relics - Guest - 02-09-2009 [quote name='dispachrg' post='280402' date='Feb 9 2009, 00:27 ']Found this American Lafrance at Slagles fire in Columbia, SC.

I've stolen the following from the ALF Spotter's Guide: "Based on the success of the less expensive Pioneer series, the folks at ALF went one step further and, in 1972, introduced yet another lower cost model, the Pacemaker. The Pacemaker used the standard ALF custom chassis, but with a cab purchased from TCM(Truck Cab Manufacturers) of Cincinnati, OH. The Pacemaker was more expensive than a Pioneer II, but still less than a 900 Series or 1000 Series. The Pacemaker was available in all configurations and with all options, but, due to the mass produced cab, was less costly than the full custom ALF's. The Pacemaker remained in production at Elmira until about 1980." Relics - Guest - 02-11-2009 Found this 70's era Seagrave TDA from Baltimore City. Reseve Truck 37. Not Ladder 49 but a close relative. She's been abused. Open cab tiller seat. The owner is willing to part with her or else she'll be scrapped. Rt. 1 Washington Blvd. & Ducketts La. in Elkridge, MD Relics - Guest - 02-11-2009 side view Relics - Guest - 02-11-2009 rear Relics - Guest - 02-11-2009 city veh # for those of you who track this. Couldn't access the drivers door Relics - Guest - 02-11-2009 Also had this Kensington FD Hahn? Used to sit out front of the place now rotting in the back. They also had a newer yellow KME he said came from Dulles Airport that is visible from the road. No pics of that one. The Seagrave and Kensington rigs can not be seen from the road Relics - Guest - 02-11-2009 [quote name='coolie71' post='281045' date='Feb 11 2009, 17:15 ']side view[/quote] This truck was originally assigned to Truck 4 in Hagerstown Maryland. It was purchased by Baltimore City to run as a spare. One night Truck 15 was running her when they tried backing down a street. They heard a loud bang and the frame broke. You can see the smashed fender from where it twisted in the back. Baltimore towed it to the scrap heap. Get out your welder whoever wants this rig LOL Relics - Guest - 02-11-2009 [quote name='coolie71' post='281051' date='Feb 11 2009, 17:20 ']Also had this Kensington FD Hahn?

It isn't a KME that is out front though, it is a Pierce. We made a couple trips past to see who's it was.
