The Sylvan Beach Buffalo is still around. Last I knew a gentleman named Danny Dunn owned it and was for sale. He kept in a pole barn near his camp near Camden NY. He did contact the Sylvan Beach Fire dept if they wanted it and they had no interest in it.



BTW, by some chance do you have a picture of Central Square NY's 27 Selden/Buffalo

The Sylvan Beach Buffalo is now housed in Andy Leider's warehouse. It's marked Sto-Ne-Nols Fire Dept.

Thanks John.



Sto-Ne-Nols is a campgrounds near Camden, or up the other side of Panther Lake. I am glad it found a good home. One of our members wanted us to buy, but I was against it, if it wasn't our, I had no real interest in it.

Thanks for the information. I save this for my records



Any one know about this truck?

Hahn that was not from North Lindenhurst, but privately owned (and still is) by a member there. I would like to drive up to LI to see this rig.

I believe I can help somewhat...The driver is the private owner of this piece, and his name is Walter "Wally" Reutlinger. He's a former member of North Lindenhurst, now a Commissioner/ member of Sayville, NY. Next time I see him I'll try to find out the history on this one. Otherwise you might try to contact the fire district to leave a message for him. PM me if you'd like...

Would that company have become Marion by 1981?



BTW, Tom did you ever make our Butler NJ parade back in June 1977 that you wrote me in longhand about 32 years ago?

I found this picture in the village archives a few weeks ago and the historian finally scanned it and sent it to me.



It is a picture of a 1937 Packard, that served as Central Square's first rescue truck. It was donated to the department in 1953 and served untill 1963 when replaced with a little Ford Econoline van. Not the best picture of it but the only picture of it by itself that i have found. It was taken in 1955.
