First up is a 1927? American Lafrance - built for Secaucus NY, rejected (as is my understanding), and bought by the Bethesda Fire Dept. This engine was bought by Glen Echo and delivered on Nov. 30, 1930. This was the first piece for the department.

I believe that should be Secaucus NJ, in the heart of the Meadowlands 4 miles west of midtown Manhattan, home to 14,000 people, hundreds of businesses and industries, hotels, and two broadcast tv stations. Secaucus is protected by 5 all volunteer fire companies with one of their ex chiefs presently serving as president of the NJ State Firemen's Association. It is the only town so named listed at placesnamed.com.
