Neighboring Gulfport, MS had several Macks too. Aerial 10 was a 1968 Mack CF/Pierce 85' Snorkel.

Gulfport Eng 3 was a 1979 Mack R 1000/500.

And their Eng 4 was a 1964 Mack B 1250/500.

Bay St. Louis, MS Eng 1 was a 1983 Mack MC 1000/500.

On the drive home, I went through Laurel, MS. They had two Macks. Eng 2 was a 1974 Mack CF 1250/500.

[taurudak]

And Laurel Eng 3 was a 1964 Mack C85 750/500.

Passing through Charlotte on a gray day, I found their Eng 13 which was a 1975 Mack CF 1000/500/55' Sqt.

And the next morning I found this 1983 Mack MC 1500/500 from Mint Hill, NC.

Violetville, Baltimore Co Eng 341 was a 1967/87 Mack C125/Mount Aetna 1250/500. My notes say it originally came from Brighton, NY.

Could be from Brighton Monroe County NY (Town of Brighton)....could be the old Engine 303 out of Station 3....There was a C Model there....

They also had a FDNY spec rig, I think that was Engine 305 out of their Station 2, but that one looks to fancy for that.



If not maybe Brighton in Erie County, (Town of Tonawanda), I know they had Macks, but I think they were CFs.



John in Rochester NY.

Thanks for posting some neat stuff that used to serve my area. The Mack CF served E13 until 1989 when it was sold to Lauderdale County,TN.

Did W Hempstead have two? One is preserved at the Andy Lieder museum in Circleville, NY. A little dusty perhaps. I show it as a 1961. And it has a single Beacon Ray warning light on the cab roof. Did someone liberate the two siren lights shown above? Westchester Models may still offer it should you want one to display on your shelves.

I know here in NJ as Motor Vehicle Laws changed, some FD's upgraded lights. Most of the flasher styles were either removed or a beacon added. Some Departments did not change over at all either.

Marc, IIRC a gentleman by the name of Hewy Wick, of Hemet, California now has her and makes the local musters. I have it on a video in a parade.
