Hope Fire Co. in Philipsburg had a closed cab C-Mack.

Thanks to all who have pitched in and helped me out with these rigs and info.  Thanks to the leads from Jeff, Mike and Warren, Google and I figured out that the Philipsburg Mack is indeed a 1963.  The 1966 was the canopy cab that was operated by Hope Hose Company. 

 

With reference to the 1961 Seagrave from Allegheny Township, keep in mind that I photographed that rig around 1990 and my memory isn't perfect, but I think the story was that it had been repowered with a motor out of a GMC, so they added the letters to the front of the cab. 

 

I do have one more rig from North Hempfield that isn't posted in this thread, the 1975 Kenworth/National Foam Squrt.  I can post it if you'd like.  The 1987 FMC pumper was posted several pages back, shot while serving with Dunbar.  If you go back in this thread to Spring, 2009, I shot their 2009 Pierce rescue at the factory.

 

Funny thing about SO# 454, Micah.....  It's the 454th apparatus in my database of apparatus photographs!

 

I'll be back soon with more unknowns from the many places I've been, after I return all these PA pics to their proper places in the albums.  Thanks again, everyone!
