Saturday Post Live, Take 6



Yes, I know I missed last week and I will eventually post pictures from last Saturday but today is today and this is what I did today. I spent most of the morning and part of this afternoon tour a couple of new fire stations. Talking with the "owners" and looking for ideas of our own. First stop was Hampden Township Volunteer Fire Company Station 2, located on Good Hope Road on the outskirts of Mechanicsburg. Second stop was at the Lower Swatara Fire Department near Middletown, PA, just across Route 283 from the Harrisburg International Airport.
Shown in the pictures are Rescue 59, a 1975 Mack CF600, with a reflection of Engine 59, a 1998 Seagrave. The Hampden picture shows Engine 1-30, a 2005 KME Rescue Pumper, and Engine 4-30, a 2003 KME Pumper.

  2. Haney, there is a really neat and functional station in Warrenton VA on the bussiness 17 route. Not sure how far out you are search. All brick building with a dressed up style. More of a Williamsburg look, would look great in the area where station is being considered being built.
    Forgot that mamaclep went to school for this. C is this the field you are still working in?
