Fire Engines in Coaldale




Today we have a few of the fire engines I saw while in Coaldale last summer. The first Tower 4024, is a 1982 Mack/Baker Aerialscope they acquired in 1996. The tower was once FDNY Ladder 84. The second is a 1970 Kaiser/Jeep Wildlands Services Brush Truck. Acquired in 1998 from the Department of Forestry it holds 1200 gallons of water. The last is Engine 1411 of the Diligence Fire Company of Summit Hill, Pa. this unit was privately purchased and was parked at Coaldale's firehouse the day I was there. It looks to be an early 1980's Mack MC pumper.

Love the photo of the Tower. Nice to see ex-FDNY rigs from the 80s still in use. Great shot.
