We lucked out and caught a guy at this house, but he was in a hurry and didn't have time to pose the rigs in the parking lot next door, only to pull them straight out.

After Dave treated us to lunch, we headed up to Hazle Township. One rig I was after, the
Seagrave Aerialscope, was in the shop.

they are looking to replace this with either a
Pierce or a
KME in the near future.

We finished up the day in Coaldale. We had stopped by their house earlier in the day, then went back after Hughestown. No one around either time. We decided to go eat dinner, then went back for another try. Third time's a charm!

Here's the same rig, taken at Bellefonte several years ago. They are running another 'Scope now, their third.

The next morning, we headed to the southwest. Our first stop was Colonial Park. It had been many years since my last visit. Everything was new, including the station.

As the driver was backing in the first engine, they got banged out for a fire alarm. We waited about an hour for them to return.

This is the only apparatus remaining in their old paint scheme. Although the newer rigs appear to be black/white, it is actually a very dark green.
