it is still in service it is due to be replaced with a KME in the near future. [/quote] theunknowncomic, say it isn't so, Freeland is NOT buying a Seagrave? Wow!!!!. Engine 53 was always one of my favorites. Freeland has always kept their apparatus in immaculate condition. Spotless clean and hose always packed neatly, and......very, very well equipped I might add.

The Mount Penn ALF, was refurbed in house with the addition of a tiller enclosure which was torn off of a trailer from Reading Ladder 3. The Trailer had been in a junk yard on 5th street for years, when Mount Penn went and made an offer on the enclosure. A 3 vessel cascade system was also added to the trailer, as well as flip down seating in the jump seat area, which I brought from the Ono Fire Company in Lebanon County.
