On the Old Montgomery County Pics...
Rockville's old Squad 3 (originally 30 see on door) was indeed a '55 Mack B, Bruco. This went onto serve Berwyn Heights briefly then the Kent District RS (old PG Rescue 2) before winding up in a yard off Route 28 west of Rockville.
The Foam Wagon, I have as a '61 Dodge, ALF forFoam Wagon 2. There were two of these one I belive an older '58-60 model. Both rotated among stations FW 1 stayed down county (recall seeing at 7 & 18's) while FW 2 was up county often at Station 13 saw also at Station 40. The latter I have as becoming FW12 about 1975 with the old FW sold to Upper Lancaster VFD in Lively Virginia.
Spring's ALFs. What can I say there were a few of these all quite similar and they moved around. Prior to '63 they were painted all red (I have two of these a '60 and a '62 "900"). For the ones painted white over heres what I have...(anyone feel free to add or correct) I believe the image posted is correctly labeled the '63 or '66 running as either E11 or 161.
1) '63 "900" 1000/300 ran as E162, 161, 12. Sold '84.
1) '66 "900" 1000/300 ran as E11, 192, 162 and later as Extrication 15 and E272 at PSTA '90s. This was a diesel. Sold '90s.
1) '69 "900" 1000/300 ran as E191 until after a Mt Aetna rehab it went to E11. Also a diesel. Sold about '95.
2) '73 "1000" 1000/500 ran one as E 11, 163 other as E 161. Both diesels. Sold '96 and '88.
Again corrections welcome.
