I can't answer the question on the pump sizes. Maybe open cab mack can or I can ask Sparky when I talk to him next.
I do remember talk about CF's in the city. But I think the order that was cancelled were either on Ford or International chassis. Sparky mentioned the CF's before but that was a long time ago and I would have to ask him again. On my list of things to do is a Code 3 CF in yellow and black.
When you get a chance could you please post the Brockways again?[/quote]
As for the CF's, the chief at that time, Tom Kennelly was not a fan of the Mack CF. He served as chief from 1971-1980. He went to Quail Fire Dept. in Ross Twp. and looked at theirs and felt the cabs were too big and wasn't a big fan of it. That is why the "R" was bought.
