Great pics Gary! I've got to get down to Keowee Keys and see that Pierce rescue soon.

Una FD
This rig is an x-Pike Township FD ladder. Pike Township is located on the North side of Indianapolis.
Keowee Key's Rescue came from the Kingston Twp. Rescue Squad in Luzerne County. I do not have any pictures of it, but wardengine or some other PA guys might.
I will post pics tommorrow of the rescue if someone does not beat me to it

I have an in service shot of the former Pacolet Engine 3, if anyone wants to see it. It looks better without all the writing all over it! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Credits to the photographer (I believe Stephen Miknevich) The first three of the rescue when it ran as R-551 in Kingston Township, Luzerne County, PA. The Last 2 are the three generations of rescues, with the current rescue on the left, which replaced the Pierce. If I am wrong, please feel free to correct me.
The ALF/LTI ladder for Chester is a 2007. It replaced the one that got totaled fighting a mill fire. The chemicals tosted the hydralulics. I think it was either a 2002 or 2003.

As far as I know, the 1000 Series had that aluminum panel on the lower front, while the 900's did not.

Correct - Former Ladder 332/Engine 334 (Quint) - 1989 Pierce Arrow 75' rear-mount ladder - 1500gpm/500gal This truck originally served as Ladder 332 from 1989-2003. It then was retrofitted with a larger water tank and ran as frontline Engine 334 from 2003-2005. It was finally sold by the department in 2005 to Una. Here's a picture of the way it used to look:
[quote name='dispachrg' post='246665' date='Sep 13 2008, 19:05 ']This is Donalds Newest truck. My first up and close Haan. The got it used from Union Hill co. 2 in Dentville NJ. I wish I had a better pic of this truck. A firman showed up to pick up something at the station while I was taking a pic of the previous truck. He had time to open the bay doors for a minute. But said to come back. So I got what I could. Any pics of it in NJ mode.
