I know the current owner of the original Ward/Ranger Engine 17 that was used in the movie "Backdraft". He used to be on the Code 3 boards. I don't want to give his name out, but he lives in Minnesota and also owns several other of the Ward/Rangers that were in the movie. He's currently in the process of restoring the Engine 17 rig.
As for the dept. in Pennsylvania who is trying to sell their "Engine 17". That is a former Chicago rig, but it WAS NOT used in the movie backdraft. The current owner of the real Engine 17 has the whole story on that rig, and doesn't think too much of that dept. in Penna. trying to pass their rig off as the real thing.
