I will throw this out to the group....
Any chance that this is a rebuild of one of the three Metro Support Units that WMATA bought for COG about 30 years? They were designed to carry SCBA and extra SCBA cylinders; I can't remember if they were equipped with a cascade system and/or compressor.

Nope, this was originally on a 1971 Dodge 500 chassis and was obtained by Allegany County thru military surplus in the mid-1980's, it was rechassied in 1991 with the aforementioned IH N-series chassis. It has been stationed at Clarysville's Eckhart substation for its entire life.
