Clearfield had this 1970's "open" cab ALF Ladder. It and the Century ALF engine from COMPANY 1 were sold to cover the cost of the New TRUCK 1 an ALF Eagle/LTI Tower Ladder. Photo is Circa 1981 at the Company's 100th anniversary..

Part II

Last for this evening will be this American LaFrance pumper that was run by Saint Marys, PA Mattson Collection

Serial #1765 Type 40 Combination/Junior Delivered 10/16/17

Milesburg, PA ran this Mack E rescue truck. Mattson Collection

A beautiful machine. I wonder if Mack produced the body or if one of the locals in Pennsylvania or New York was responsible?

North Braddock, PA operated this Diamond-T pumper seen here in some parade somewhere. Mattson Collection

1939 Diamond T/Howe 500-gpm



That Salisbury rig is very familiar, but it just isn't coming to me as to who built the body. An interesting collection of photos!

[quote name='Dr. Stinebaugh' post='93254' date='Apr 1 2007, 08:43 ']This is a 1938 Chevy/Buffalo 500/250, still owned by Salisbury VFC,Somerset Co. PA. Scott, I'll bet you have a better shot by me of this rig from 8/96.

The Milesburg squad is another classic, a 1949 Mack/ Bruco, it was originally State College,PA. (I have a copy of the factory photo).

The custom Oren is probably from Elizabethtown,Lancaster Co. PA.?[/quote]





The first time I looked at the Oren in the picture it struck me that it was E-town's old Oren..... I have to agree with the good Doctor on this one. I remember back in the late 1990's when this thing was still in service, we did an elevator drill with E-town and they took this piece as well as thier Sutphen's. It really was a classic!
