A little farther away from it all is West Milford Fire Co. No. 6 and their slime E\-One. Greeenwood Forest Co. No. 3 runs a rig of similar vintage.

Here's one for FL_Jack! Fanwood Engine 8, a 2001 HME/Smeal engine. Fanwood recently took delivery of an HME/Smeal 75ft rearmount quint in matching livery.

Little Ferry Engine 306 was posted a few pages ago, here's its station mate, a 1994 Seagrave that runs as Engine 309. This photo was taken at a NJ/NY Firemen's Association parade of which Little Ferry was the host department.

Here is Community's Hahn engine at one of its last wetdown appearances in Fair Lawn... I think this truck is out of service now.

The Pequannock Fire Department of Pequannock Township runs this gorgeous Simon-Duplex/Saulsbury engine. This picture doesn't do it justice, unfortunately.

Wanaque Borough of Passaic County runs two similar HME/Smeals: one with a 10-man cab and non-raised roof, and one with a raised roof and an 8-Man cab. Here is the latter at the dual wetdown.

Going further south again (I'm all over the place with some of these, I'm trying to pull out ones I haven't scanned in a while) is Roselle Park's Pierce Dash engine shown arriving at Scotch Plains' wetdown. Note Hopelawn Engine 8's crew on the right.

First off, that's not a Hahn, it's a Sutphen. I shot this rig at Brindlee Mountain Fire Apparatus in Alabama several months ago. I think they sold it to South America.
