[quote name='mnsand' post='189450' date='Feb 16 2008, 14:12 ']This is one I have been trying to find a photograph of for a number of years.
Winchester once had the Sara Zane fire company which closed a number of years ago. I believe the last fire truck they purchased was this 1981 Mack MC611F12 with serial number 1053. 1250/500.
When Sara Zane closed, the Mack was sold to the Greenwood, VA VFD, located just outside of Winchester and re-painted yellow and white. The Mack is now running as a Berkeley County, West Virginia county reserve engine. I photographed it at South Berkeley's Inwood, Virginia sub-station several years ago.

For what it's worth, the Sarah Zane Fire Department in Winchester, VA ordered another Mack MC611 in late 1980/early 81 (S/N 1077) but I guess they were unable to afford it. It was sent around to various Mack dealers as a Demo model and eventually ended up being bought by the Youngstown, Ohio Fire Department.
