Thanks Matt. I wondered where that "Walker" came from. I've fixed my files.

Anytime, Joe. Where and when did you take this picture? It must have been a while ago since the chauffer is in Class A uniform and we haven't done that in a while.
THAT TANKER WAS BEING TAKEN OUT OF SERVICE THE DAY I SHOT IT THIS SUMMER. THEY WERE EMPTYING THE TANK WHEN I ARRIVED.

Sometime in the early 90's at a parade in Bordentown, I think.
This may be the first tanker in the USA ? Found this photo on the web ... They must have had a big team of horses pulling this thing ! Going down hills would be a nightmare .... They said it carried 800 gallons .
