the Mack tanker from Oak Grove was replaced by a International/E-one 1000/3000 I think. as far as I know this unit was retired.
 Quote:Another from Falmouth, and just like the Seagrave, this International has the rear step windshield. This is an International VCO-196/American Fire Apparatus, not ALF.
