[quote name='ilfirebuff' post='97669' date='Apr 14 2007, 13:08 ']First off Great oldie shots doczaff., I never knew East St.Louis FD had yellow rigs. some addnl info on some of your rigs, Caseyville FD Ladder is a 1976 Ford C/Pierce Snorkel, this truck has just been replaced this year by a Sutphen Ladder truck, I hope to get a picture of it this summer. Fairview FD Ladder Truck is a 85 Ft. 1972 Seagrave, the rig was replaced by a 100 Ft 1989 Simon Duplex LTI Ladder truck, that is still in service.[/quote]
Actually the Caseyville snorkel is a 1962 Ford C/Towers <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/BananaMan.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> 750/300/50ft. I'm sorry to hear that they finally did replace it though <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='<_<' /> ;I guess it was time though. The Fairview Seagrave aerial was replaced by 1988 Duplex/LTI 1500/300/102ft.
BTW great old pics. It's nice to see something other than the usual "cookie cutter" 4dr's of today.
