Jesse,

The rig you have posted here is actually the 1979 Hahn 1500/1000 which ran as Engine 242. This rig was traded to Northeast Fire in 1990 when the company replaced it with a 1987 Sutphen. I believe this rig was sold to Hilltown Twp. Fire in Bucks County. I notice on their webpage they list a 1978 Hahn which was refurbed in 1990. Is this the rig from Carlisle, or another engine? If it is not the same rig, does anyone from the Bucks County area know what happened to this rig?



The real Engine 142 was a 1975 Hahn 1000/300 which is shown below.



   

Notice the difference in compartment layout. The 1975 was a "borough" piece and did not have hard sleeves. Below is the 1975 Hahn after it was sold to Three Springs, Huntington County in 1987. Does anyone know where this rig went after Three Springs sold it? I sent them an email but have not received a response.

Also, we are still in service. We went thru a merger with the Empire Fire Co. in 2006 to become the Empire Friendship Firefighters Assc. Co. 45. Although we no longer use the number 42, we still consider our history to be an important part of the service that we provide today.
