Here is a shot.



Top left hose bed = 1000 gal fold-a-tank,

Center top = 1500 fold-a-tank, Center "box" = 3 - hard sleeves,

top right hose bed = 500 feet 3 inch.



Left side (near break light) = 2 pike poles.



The "jet Dumps" are 12 inch air assisted (1 on each side and 1 to the rear - with controls in the cab), there are 2 rear discharges (high) and below the "jet dump" are 2 2 1/2 inch STORZ connections for quick fills. (This is part of the requirements for the County Tanker Task Force.)

Scott,



Additional info on:



West Whiteland



1975 White tractor/1979 Pennco trailer - tractor was purchased used to replace the one destroyed in the crash, 6000 gallon trailer. It was put into service 9/79. It was sold in 10/98 for $15,000 to the Peach Tree County Fire Department (Peach Tree County, GA)

(Can anyone out there verify this ?)



Lionville



1977 Autocar DA chassis - purchased new and had the 3500 gallon Allied tank from the 1967 Mack R chassis remounted on it. It was housed on 6/25/77. The tank was removed in late 1991 due to it was leaking very badly and the company could not patch it anymore. The tank was sold to Trego Hauling of Lionville. The chassis was sent to 4-Guys to have a new elliptical tank mounted.

They still have this in service.
