[quote name='pfdbuff' post='92849' date='Mar 31 2007, 07:06 ']Marc,

The 77 Mack Squrt was junked a few years back. After 72's got the new squrt in 1993, the Mack became Squrt 238. For the first time the department had a reserve squrt. Unfortunately the piece was pretty beat up and it didn't last.[/quote]





Thanks, and i was actually down in South Jersey and Philly last weekend and noticed that TL-4's old '78 Mack TL that used to be alongside I-95 has finally been moved........or scrapped????
The only MARC in 46 ENGINE!

...and as a reserve piece. On this day when it was running as Squrt 57, I unfortunately didn't have the guy pull it out far enough to get the whole boom into the sunlight. Just about 6 inches!!

Here are some shots of the Philadelphia Fire Departments Thrill Show that was held at JFK Stadium in S. Philly back in 1987. Sorry for the pictures being somewhat grainy.
