Thank you for the clarification and additional information. I am going with what is on the slide - I really appreciate the updated info and additional history on the truck.

Mike,
I made a typo on the date. Blame it on the fingers, as big as they are, the keys are close too!!
The Oren/Corbitt's are 1952's. Richmond ordered three of these hose wagons and they were assigned to and ran as Wagons of Engine Co.'s 2 - 3 and 9. All had the same size pumps and tanks, 500-200 They were nice driving trucks.
Sorry about the typo/
