Compare it to this shot from Florence, AL, shot around 1993.  I have the tank size listed as 200 gallons.

The Mack tower is the one I used to own. 1974 which served Burlington NJ, Croydon PA, McKinley PA, and finally Keasbey NJ.


The ALF tiller was in service with York City Bureau of Fire in PA.

Dave, that sure looks like the same mini-pumper.  I'm guessing Florence was its original home before Mid-Lauderdale, AL?

This wasn't a former brush jeep from Grill Fire Company in Berks County was it? It's a sweet looking rig!

When I walked around the line up area, I am fairly certain this was an Ex-York City rig.  I don't know what company though off hand.
