No the International chassis seen in the picture Providence volunteers purchased to replace the aging GMC or Chevy chassis (can't quite remember). They sold the truck and purchased the Oceanside rig which they are still running.
Finally, Squad 10 from the Guardian Hose Co in Thurmont was this impressive 1989 Hahn 92 cab and chassis with Saulsbury bodywork. According to their website, it is not longer on the roster. Anybody knows the whereabouts of this beauty ?

The former RS10, the 1988 (del. 9-6-88) Hahn/Saulsbury from Guardian Hose Co. of Thurmont.
Replaced in early spring of 06, it was for sale thru October 06, and due to the new station project, was mostly stored at Sta. 13, Rocky Ridge VFC.
For 1 week in Oct.06, it sat on this grassy lot on the property where Guardian's temporary station was located. Sunlight at the proper angle produced this photo, and a day later, the rig left Thurmont for unknown destination.
While they were kind enough to move the current apparatus out of the station for me, they refused to take this one out of their museum - and I fully appreciated that. Westminster's long ago Eng 32 was this 1933 American LaFrance 750/100.
