No. 3190, 6V71 Detroit Diesel, manual transmission, and manual outriggers. Replaced in 1995 and they had a tough time selling this. It was loaned to Gilbralter (Berks County) for the month of March - 1998 with the intent on buying it, purchased by them with the 1983 Pirsch pumper for $50,000 who repainted it YW.

The Scott Twp FD has two very interesting pumpers. Engine 2571 is a 1989 Mack MR with Ranger bodywork. It has a 1500 gpm-pump and carries 500 gallons of water and 40 gallons of foam. John Schmidt photo.



With its enclosed top-mount pump it looks more like a pumper from Minnesota.

Even more unique is this engine from Scott Twp FD. I have very little info except the chassis is a 1976 Mack R. Maybe a rebuilt unit ? I hope, our experts from PA knows more. John Schmidt photo

That is a pretty cool looking mid-mount. You don't tend to see mid mounts much these days.

Butlers Ladder has a rear mount pump!! one of the few ever built. It spends more time in the shop thatn in service. They have had ALF out there countless times to address a miriad of problems that still have not been resolved. All of this has been since the date of purchase.

Glendales Engine were both rehabed units.



They have now rechassed the MR Ranger Body to a Spartan Chassis. Work was done by Keystone Fire Apparatus, McKees Rocks

Anyone have any more info on this truck. I am confused to why it is duel axel in the rear with only a 1550 tank? a single axle would handle this just fine.
