Manheim,Pa. runs something you don't see in these parts very often,this 2004 Pierce Lance with enclosed top mount pump panel 1750/1000/50 and job# 15579.
This past Saturday I had the unique opportunity to drive Alexandria's new Pierce Arrow XT 100'TDA from Baltimore to Manassas,Va with about 2 minutes of tillering inside the convention center and then it was locked in position for the rest of the trip.To say the least it was like a kid in a candy store and I wish I would have had a chance to drive the back but hey I'm not dead yet!!! Job#21493.
Thanks Taylor! Unfortunately by the time I got to Manassas there was a storm moving in so they are not as good as the guys from Philly got while I was putting fuel in her up in Baltimore.

Terry, thanks for the shots, and I am very jealous of you getting to drive her.

I believe this is now the "new" Truck 829......another of some recent apparatus moves in PGFD....no more Truck at Blvd Heights !!
Remember, it's their Emergency, not yours ! Arrive Alive !
I thought I had more but all I have are these shots of the storage area for ground ladders and then the reflective stripes on the back of Terry's ride to Manassas.
Penn Twp.(York County) used to have 3 fire companies but has been consolidated into one in a new station.Before they closed the Pennville station I shot their E\-One Bronto.
The Pennville station also had this Pierce Arrow tanker 1250/2500(I think) and it was sold to a fire company out west in Oregon or Washington from what I was told.
