1977 PC-17-5444 Buffalo, New York NY E23(poss. a 50' TSQ) 1250/500 American La France Pioneer III[/quote]
Mike,
Buffalo only had 2 1977 Pioneers. The pumper assigned to E 23 did not have a telesqurt, and a rearmount 100' ladder was assigned to L 9. The only Pioneers with a telesqurt (35') were assigned to E 18 and E 37. They were from the first order of 9 pumps and 4 ladders. Shortly after delivery of the Pioneers, E 36's Mack CF and E-1's Pioneer were switched. The original order of Pioneers went to Engines 1, 18, 22, 25, 26, 31, 35, 37, and 38. The 4 ladders were assigned to Ladders 4, 7, 10, and 12.
