This is a former Baltimore Fire Department Mack. The BFD built several pumpers in the repair shop in 1926 using wood hosebed bodies from horse drawn wagons. It appears that this body has been replaced with new wood. The other telltale sign is the "Baltimore Basket" over the hose bed used as a catchall for loose equipment.

Anybody know for sure if that's a Nathan P-5 locomotive chime on the roof and does it have its own air tank?

Does anyone know what happened to this truck and 33? Are they up for sale?

Unfortunately, I don't have any information on this Mack CF other than it is used by the students at the Rio Hondo fire academy in Santa Fe Springs, CA. Most likely, it was repainted at some by the students as there are very few black over red paint schemes in Southern California. Sorry the photo is not that good, but the trucks are parked pretty close to each other.

Here it is from another angle.

This Mack is from Compton FD. I am pretty sure it was Engine 42 but may have been Engine 41.

Our 2nd due Engine, Engine 2924 the CF-700 V8 with a modified grille to allow more air into the engine and radiator thus keeping it from over-heating. The V8s are notorious for over-heating.

Looks good and kinda inconspicuous, like it was there the whole time, I'll be curious to know how that screen work with the overheating problem.

What a beast. I thought the LAFD's Crown Wrecker was some sight, but this one is also great looking.

Someone had asked me the particulars about this one. All I can find written down about it in the pile of notes is that it's a 1968.



(All of the nice 700s also present at the muster must've caught the photographer's attention, Lindsay. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />)

Don't let her fool you, Lindsay! She likes Macks but just won't admit it!
