Yesterday, I attended a get-together for a fellow CPFD retiree, that took place in Coweta County. Since I don't get down that way often, it was a great opportunity to track down and photograph this rig. Back in 1975, the newly formed Coweta County FD purchased a fleet of six Suburban 750 engines from Pierce. Most of these rigs served well into the 1990's, but were fairly beat up. This lone "survivor" has been refurbished and converted into a caisson apparatus, complete with a lift that places the casket up in the hose bed.
