Patton, Cambria County? For the Blue Knob Mack.
Hardy, William C
Larimer VFD, Westmoreland County Station 1
Westinghouse Waltz Mill VFB, Westmoreland County Station 116
The Mack tower is the one I used to own. 1974 which served Burlington NJ, Croydon PA, McKinley PA, and finally Keasbey NJ.
The ALF tiller was in service with York City Bureau of Fire in PA.
The Reese brush unit is privately owned and is American job number 2573 per Robert Gaffney.

Dave, that sure looks like the same mini-pumper. I'm guessing Florence was its original home before Mid-Lauderdale, AL?

When I walked around the line up area, I am fairly certain this was an Ex-York City rig. I don't know what company though off hand.
