I've seen Kersey ALFs on Pemfab and I think maybe Spartan chassis, but not a
HME . Can't be too many of them built, let alone still in service!

This was the only one and the last rig built at Bluefield.

Um,.....I was on the wrong side of the river?
I had a pretty full itinerary that day - Castle Shannon, Carnegie, Green Tree (my contact never showed), Hill Top, North Hampton, and Grove City (again, contact didn't show up) and made it to my sister's in Jamestown, NY before 9 PM. Tidioute was a fluke, there were trucks outside when I was driving by.

Thanks, but I doubt I'll be back in PA again anytime soon. I will keep your offer in mind for the next time.
For the amount of time I had, I feel I did pretty good. The weather was cooperative for most of the trip. I spent a Saturday and a Sunday afternoon in Erie County and shot just about everything new since 2014 and added a couple FD's I'd never shot before. On the trip back south, I hit several more with success. Photos will be posted.
I usually post things in the order in which they were shot, but I caught a parade in NY and don't have all the specs on several rigs. I'm working on that, but I think I will skip them for now and continue posting from the trip, saving those until I get the info.
