Rescue 2 has had an interesting history.
It started its career in St. Louis, MO as Squad 1 and painted red.
After serving St. Louis, it was sold to Blades, Delaware where it was painted white with Lime and ran as Rescue 71-6.
In 2002, it was sold to Greenbackville and modified the lime color to red.
Here is the info:
1968 Seagrave 800-KC/Welch
rehabed in 1983 by Marion
4 bottle cascade system
Seagrave s/n R-4404
Welch s/n 157
Would anyone have a photo they can post of the Seagrave in St. Louis?
Corrections/updates appreciated on the history of this truck.

So this Squad is still in service? Awesome rig. I'll have to stop off next time I'm around there and check it out in person.
Great job by the Greenbackville crew in keeping it up...
