Quote:The Derry Township VFD of Bradenville, PA ran this 1981 Ford L/FMC pumper. It had a 1250 gpm pump and a 750 gallon water tank. Bill Schwartz pic/Mattson Collection
Last I checked still owned by them, but now it is mostly a reserve; replaced by a Sutphen in 2002.
Doc, I thought Shafton's was a 1969 <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mellow.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> I was always told the pattern in "The Township" was: our old American LaFrance 900 was a '67, Strawpump's Ford C/Howe was a 1968, Shafton's Pioneer a 1969, and Circleville's Seagrave a 1970 (first diesel in North Huntingdon).
Scott, thanks again for the pic's!
