Quote:Finally for tonight, Engine 2-4 from the Shoshone County FD/Idaho was another 1977 ALF Pioneer III, 1000 gpm-pump and 750 gwt. ALF # S-5706



While this rig has the same appearance that a Pioneer III would have, I believe the registration number, S-5706, would indicate that this rig is a Spartan model. The Spartan model was introduced in 1976 as a low-cost alternative to the custom chassis, but with custom features. It was based on a GM chassis, not an ALF chassis. The similarities between the two models would make identification nearly impossible, except for the registration number.



Food for thought, from your friendly apparatus geek! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_crazy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Icon_crazy' />

Dave, thanks for the info. It is much appreciated.



Another great looking Diamond-T pumper from Bremerton/WA is this 1962 model with bodywork from Westland. It had a 1250 gpm-pump and a 300 gallon-tank.

Any of you guys have a shot of the following:



City of Corvallis (Benton County, OR)



1982 Duplex/Car-Mar, Cincinnati canopy cab, 1500/3000, cabinet style tandem axle tanker, 8V92TA, 475 HP, automatic, 6.5 KW Kohler generator. This was the first truck ordered with the new paint scheme, white over red. It was originally purchased new by the Po-Mar-Lin Fire company (Chester County, PA). It was housed on 8/7/82. It was out of service most of 1992 at Pierce having a new 4-door Arrow cab installed and additional body work at a cost of $282,000. It went back into service 11/1/92. In late 2002 it was replaced and sold to CustomTec Fire Apparatus of Canada (a dealer) for $75,000 who sold it in 1/03 to the City of Corvallis (Benton County, OR). It might have been destroyed in a accident in 2005.



Many thanks,

It's still around, just saw it two days ago. Runs as Tanker 146 out of Station 6. I'll try and get a pic of it for you soon.
