A couple notes.....
Ogontz FC also had twin Mack C-95's (1000/500). One went to Fleetwood, PA, the other to Peach County, GA. The Fleetwood rig was retired and sold to a collector. The Peach County rig was rolled and sits behind PCFD Station 2.
The Erie Ward LaFrance was one of two they operated. This was 80-428, the 1970 1000/500 that originally ran as Engine 3. The other, 80-303 was a 1969 1500/500 that ran as Engine 1 and was later sold to Franklin Twp., PA. It currently sits in Erie, now owned by a collector.
The Paxtonia ALF TDA went through many changes over the years. In the photo that was posted, it is a 1980 ALF tractor (x-FDNY E-216) and the 1969 ALF 100' trailer (x-Rochester, NY). The original 1969 tractor had been replaced. Sometime later, a different ALF 100' trailer (x-Philly) replaced the original trailer. Also, while on Paxtonia, they had a Mack pumper, I'm not sure which one, that was glidered into their Pierce Arrow heavy rescue.
Good stuff, by the way. I'm enjoying seeing the older stuff, especially from NW PA.
