I believe this is the same truck that Putney, VT bought used in the 90's? It was recently replaced by a used 90's E\-One rear-mount 110' stick from MA after the ladder failed its yearly test. Here's a link to it when in VT. http://www.firenews.org/vt/PutneyVTL1.jpg



I don't think it got much use in VT, I stopped in their new firehouse about 5 years ago and they pretty much told me the ladder was the last out the door unless it was for a mutual aid request.

This truck ended up in the south. the Putney Vt Seagrave came from Roselle, IL which was nearby.

Here is the truck as posted on Firepics, unfortunately I do not know who it came from when posted, please chime in if this was yours. I believe this is Burton SC. Credit to the original photographer.
