[quote name='BrobMa' post='137833' date='Aug 7 2007, 12:36 ']RE: Continental Compacs



Essex MA Fire purchased the first Compac Demonstrator AND the second Compac Demonstrator. Both of these units were pretty much hand built at Continental's facility.[/quote]



I knew they had the first demostrator as Engine 1, now retired. I thought they said that their second Compac was the LAST one built, giving them bookends for the Compacs.



IMHO, the Compacs were a good idea with a flawed execution. Too bad they didn't last.

LOL...



Indeed those photos were taken early on Chief. At some point shortly after Danvers had it, there was a switch from the wooden spoke wheels to some more modern wheels. Here is a really bad, color photo I have of it taken in the 1950's towards the end of its useful life. If I remember correctly, it was sold to a junk metal dealer in Topsfield and junked. Photographer unknown.

Danvers owned four Ahrens Foxes in the 1920's. I can get the specifics if needed, but in general they had:



The 1916 "A"

A 1920's pumper with the dome

A 1920's city service ladder

A 1920's without the dome





Here is a scan of the 1925 model GJ50-4 without the dome. Taken 8-31-25, SN 5001
