Here's the last rig from Friday. Five minutes out of town, the bottom dropped out and it poured the rest of the day.

Does New Tripoli still have the X Military brush truck?

Yes, they keep it at another station.

Saturday was the PA State Convention parade in Lake Harmony. I arrived in the area early and scoped out the parade route, which was a narrow, two lane road through the woods. There were only a few spots that one could shoot the rigs without shadows. The skies were overcast, so daylight was very limited on most of the route. I found out that the judging area was a few miles away at the Pocono Raceway. When I got there, I met up with a small group of guys who were there for the same thing I was. As many as eight photographers were there before it was over.



I won't post everything that I shot here, which was upwards of 100 apparatus. There were more rigs than that, but they were ones I already have. The unfortunate things was that there wasn't an opportunity to get specs on anything. I have been able to find out the info for most of the rigs I shot. The ones I'm posting are ones that I have limited or no info on, and I'm hoping someone can help me out.



First up is this Canteen from the North Penn Goodwill Services in Souderton, on a Freightliner chassis. Any ideas on the year and bodybuilder?

American Fore Company #1 in Lansford operates this Ford F-700 as a brush truck. I'm looking for the year and capacities.

I have no info on this KME from Mahoning Valley.


This & That from Here & There - GA_Dave - 10-12-2011

This International brush truck once served Manchester, MD. I believe it is owned by the same guy who owns the 1968 Hahn from Manchester. Looking for the year and capacities.

I also need info on this KME Excel pumper from Penn Forest Township #2.

Pocono Mountain brought two rigs. I need all info on Engine 5's Sutphen.

They also brought this Peterbilt tanker. Complete info needed.

I have nothing on this little GMC pumper, which I believe is collector owned. Is this even a PA truck?


This & That from Here & There - GA_Dave - 10-12-2011

An older KME Renegade, Engine 1312 from New Columbus, PA. This one seems familiar, like maybe someone else had it first, but I can't place it.


This & That from Here & There - GA_Dave - 10-12-2011

Engine 51 or Rescue 1 from Hauto, a Pierce Lance. I've been told that this was a Las Vegas rig.

Based on the crosslays, I can only guess that this is a rescue pumper from Tinicum Township. There website was no additional help, didn't even list who built it.

The last one is this KME pumper from Norristown, Engine 27-2. Their website shows that Engine 27 has a twin. They give no info for either.
