A Side bar to this is that the folks from Warriors Mark may have viewed New Franklin rig being built back in 1987 when they took delivery of their GMC / Pierce Tanker.

The Sales Person at the time for the Warriors Mark rig took ill right before delivery and I was sent to Appleton in his place. Their tanker was my first Pierce Delivery.

This photo was taken in Appleton during the Warriors Mark trip... my notes on the photo only reads " Arrow Pumper for PA".......

Mechanical engineers build weapons, whereas civil engineers build targets.





When the man at the door said," Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms", I, naturally assumed it was a delivery!

Four FD's in 26 years, now that is impressive.  You shooting it in all four is even better!

Actually, the Nuremburg-Weston piece came from the North End Fire Company of Pottstown, Pa.. it was white with a yellow stripe.  I can't seem to find a picture of it running at Pottstown for some reason though...

Later photographed with Mechanicsville Fire Co., Schuylkill County, PA.  I heard this fire company has closed and I do not know what became of this engine.
