Thats a lot of pressure. But then again you are stretching the line a little distance.
People complaining about spam in the spam mail box... Huh, what'll they think of next?

Question for Kevin Bryne or others. It seems most of the DC engines are 1250 gpm. However, I do see some KME, E\-One, and Pierce engines that I have listed as 1500. I also see some engines with 750 tanks while 500 is the standard. Most do not have foam, but I also show some pumpers with 30 gallon foam cells. I do not need to go back in history, but does anyone have a list or shop number for the 1500s, 750s, and 30s foam pumpers from say 1990 to today? I hope you can understand my question and someone has a list without researching.



Thanks for any assistance with this project - Jerry

I may be mistaken, but I recollect just one of the 1998 batch also had a foam tank – and I think it went to E-30. I will check. Meanwhile, perhaps ResQguy, Jaws, or dcfiremanjeff can jump in.

Many thanks for the informative posts to my request. I appreciate it. I'm still having problems with the KMEs from 1992, 1993, and 1995. Anyone got a list for those?

I am not sure if the 98's had foam tanks on them, but I don't think they did. Someone else posted the info above showing they had foam tanks. These were the 4 wagons which E\-One tried to make with low hosebeds. They placed most of the water tank standing up just before the hose bed, with only a little of the water tank under the hosebed. It was an 'L' shaped tank. The problem with these wagons is that that design placed too much weight on the front axle and too little weight on the rear axle. This caused for these wagons to have a lot of problems, and eventually E\-One had to bring them back to Florida and redo them so that they had a traditional water tank.

Here is the hosebed of E-7's Seagrave.

Jerry,

Here's a list of 1992 & 1993 pumper deliveries.



1992 KME Renegade S191 1500/750/30 E19,E30R

1992 KME Renegade S192 1500/750/30 E8,E12



1993 KME Renegade S193 1500/750/30 E6 (wrecked 2001)

1993 KME Renegade S194 1500/750/30 E17,E14R

1993 KME Renegade S195 1500/500/30? 75' E12



1993 E\-One Cyclone TC S196 1500/750/30 E16,E3

1993 E\-One Cyclone TC S197 1500/750/30 E25,E25R



Note: DC went thru a couple changes numbering their reserves. Some engines received their shop number as their reserve number.

I photographed a few Hahns and Ford C/E-Ones back between 1998 & 2000 using this system. Then they started numbering

them with the number of the Engine Company they were quartered with followed by an "R". Now they are numbered in the 50s

and 60s series.

I'm not sure if and how many of the KME pumpers got the shop number as the reserve number. Maybe someone

else has some more info.

I scanned some old photos today, these are from 1990 or 1991, can't really remember, I was 13 or 14 so don't expect too much from these!

I have not added to this great string as my records have all concurrred with what has been posted. What the hey, I'll throw in here. Kevin, Jerry, Jeff my records all concur on the foam and water tanks over the years and on the KME's with one exception. On S-195 "The Thing" that I have as a '93 KME "Excel" 1500/500/30 with a 75' Firestix. I have it as a '93 model that did not go in service until as I have it summer 1994 (feel free to correct). Jeff of the KME's I have 191, 192 & 194 taking the shop #'s as their reserve unit numbers. I also have for S-114 through 117 as '99 E-Ones, with S-117 that went to E30 the only one with a 30-gallon foam cell. I'm going off shop lists plus Wagon Pipe coverage. Great String that has jogged lots of my memories.

Trust me, E30 was S116. I just had to walk around its oil slick on the apparatus floor yesterday. No foam cell here.



Also worth mentioning regarding the Pierces, Engine-4 is the only wagon in the bunch to have the TAK4 suspension, as well as a Detroit 60.

I want to thank everyone who has assisted me with my roster. I am headed north tomorrow. I will be in Arlington and DC. I hope to have some DC photos to post on Sunday.



I'm now looking for a list of apparatus that has been taken out of service recently (past year or so). I found a lot of this by veiwing Kevin's history. Going through all the post and reading them is great, but a list would make the task a lot easier.



Thanks for any help offered - Jerry
