Pretty neat stuff. This was one of three similar rigs built for Barnstable County - a 1958 was stationed in West Barnstable, a 1963 was stationed in Dennis and this rig was stationed in Orleans. Orleans apparently ran this rig until the early 1980's when it was sold to Eastham who ran it for several years before selling it to Brewster MA. who also purchased and ran the 1963 rig which had served in Dennis. I've always wanted to see a shot of this in front of the Orleans fire house; thanks for sharing!
