Both of these are still in service. However, Springdale Township & Harmar Townships fire departments consolidated to form the Allegheny Valley Volunteer Fire Department. Both stations remain open. The 1983 will soon be going though.

Valley in the early 1990's, it was OOS when Shoop,SR., and I were last there in 2010, reportedly privately owned in Bedford Co.

As always Dr. Stinebaugh, you are a wealth of information on fire apparatus from the greater Washington, D.C. metro area. Thank you for all your contributions.

One additional tidbit; while at Reisterstown, it was stolen and taken for a joyride. It was recovered with minor damage.
