Thanks Larry! I'm really not sure who it was assigned to. Looking back, shooting it didn't seem like a big deal at the time, but now I'm really glad I got it considering this type of truck is really a rig of the past now and it has the old, plain FDNY paint scheme too.
it was one of 8 Seagrave rearmounts delivered, but 1 of 2 delivered with Cummins Diesel Engines. the other 6 were Detroits. This one was originally L38, then went to L30 in 1991. it became a spare in 1994 and was disposed of in 2000.
3 Truck's former rig. Was also used on a few episodes of the old tv show Third Watch. This rig was out at The Rock when I went through Probie School in July of 2001. We used it as a training rig for truck company evolutions almost everyday.
The only MARC in 46 ENGINE!
