More info on the Monroeville units
The 67 ALF 900 Monroeville #5 (E-52) had a 750 gallon tank. The Fire Chief there at the time confirmed it. It was sold in 83 to Lincoln VFD (Allegheny County). They placed a canopy cab on the unit and it server there until the late 90's. I believe it was finally scrapped after that.

Monroeville did have the distinction of having the "last of" from American LaFrance Elmira. The last open cab made (E-52) and the last vehicle made (E-11).
