Without prior arrangement I then stopped at the fire station in the town of Skykomish, were I met the Chief and some Volunteers. The apparatus bays were full packed with interesting truck. The most interesting truck for me was parked behind two other apparatus. Oh well ! The Chief was not too excited, as I told him that I would like to shoot this particular truck. But with the help of the very nice Volunteers it worked well.
Tender 295 is this 1978 AM General (CCC) M 916 with locally built body. It has a 350 gpm-pump and carries 4200 gallons of water. I was told, that the chassis was a special purpose built ex-US Army truck.
In the 80ies and 90ies I saw a lot of these M 916 tractor-trailers going to the nearby US-Army logistics depot in Giessen / Germany.
