1935 Ford V-8/Hahn. Built by Hahn in Hamburg for Union FC-Hamburg (Berks Co.),PA. Originally a 2 tank chemical truck. In 1943 a 500 gpm front-mount pump was added. Protected the Hahn plant. In 1951 the underwriters surveyed the Borough of Hamburg and found the fire company had obsolete equipment. Hahn was building apparatus for a multitude of customers but the hometown was suffering. The result was the complete rebuild of the 1935 by Hahn and two new front-mount pumpers on Ford chassis by Hahn. In service in Hamburg until 1967.[/quote]
Thanks Al. All that was mentioned yesterday but I forgot it (had no time to write it down; kept meeting people and explaining things or asking questions.)
Yes it was dark (photographically speaking). Really have to wait a good length of time for the flash to be fully charged. I'll post some of the better ones.
