A heads up for you Jersey guys,



Supposedly the Goodwill Fire Company of Washington Boro (Lancaster County, PA) sold the following tanker to a New Jersey fire company, but nobody can tell me where it went. Does it sound familiar to anyone ?



Many thanks,



Bruce

We have a whole bunch of tankers in Hunterdon County, old and new, but not this one. Hopefully that narrows the search...

Its for driving into high water. A snorkle like device for the air intake for the engine. There were 3 or more engines (ONLY) that have this. It was Newarks answer to people stuck in HIGH WATER CONDITIONS.
