Mt. Pleasant Fire Company No. 8 of Harrisburg, PA

Old Engine 8 - 1975 CF-Model Mack

 

This rig lived an interesting life.  It started out at the Mt. Pleasant Station until 1983 when Fire Chief Don Konkle moved it to City Station 2 and made it Wagon 4, at which time Mt. Pleasant got back their 1962 C-Model Mack and they became known as Squad 8.  In the late 1988 when the City of Harrisburg purchased the Sutphen Engines, this rig was sent out to LDI to be refurbished and when it came back it now ran as Engine 2 (a reserve piece).  It remained as Engine 2 and until the City of Harrisburg sold if in 2009 to a local firefighter in the Harrisburg area and he re-lettered it as Engine 8.  He had it for approximately 2 years and then he sold it and it is now enjoying retirement down in Texas.
