Pike County PA, just over the Deleware River from Port Jervis had a dive call yesterday that I heard them send Port Jervis to. It was probably that. Mill Rift PA is Station 34, West Falls PA is Station 39 from ocnyfire

I thought we had one, Chris192 flies it

I believe thats up to 14-44

Where are they now? Rescue Truck (1965 GMC/Gertenslager). Sold to Catskill Hose Co 1 in 1985. They refurbished the box and then remounted it on a GMC Brigidair. It was replaced about 2 years ago. The chassis went to the highway Dept and the box was scrapped. (Ron Bogardus photos) Ladder. See above post Tanker (1972 Oren). Replaced in 1991. Sold to Hutchinson KS Tanker/Pumper (1977 Oren) See above post Pumper (1966 Oren) Retired in 2002. Donated to Putnam County Bureau of Emergency Services. It has since been sold to an estate owner in Pawling NY Brush Truck (1970 Dodge-GK). Sold in the late 90's to a departmetn in upstate NY (Possibly Inlet NY)

Proudly serving Kingsbury Fire Company in Washington County as Tower 383 When we went to see it in 2006 it still had some of our stickers on it Last, a group shot

The "rebadged" engine is the twin of the one Tommy posted. Quick history. In 1977 Mahopac pruchased twin Oren Tanker-Pumpers from Carke Palmer of Gowan-Knight Fire Apparatus in Watertown CT. They held 1000 gallons (Which made them tankers) with 1500gpm pumps. The first Oren was assigned to Headquaters Engine Co 1 as Tanker 18-4-3. In 1988 it was refurbished by GK with new stainless steel compartments and warning light upgrades. In 1991 it was assigned to the newly opened Station 2 on Buckshollow Rd. The Chief in 1992 decided both vehicles were better classified as Engines and renumbered it 18-2-2. It was returned to Headquarters in 1994 when Eng. 2 got their new GK Tanker-Pumper where it served until 2005. In 2005 it was retired from service and donated to a fire department in western NY. That department had to give it to a mechanic in return for work on that departments other engine. The mechanic put it up for sale on e-bay where it was eventualy bought by a Ex-Captain of Engine Co 2 who started to restore it to 1977 condition. He changed the lettering to Buckshollow on the front. He has since sold it to one of the Assistant Chiefs who has it at his shop on Route 6 (Seths photo) the second Oren was assigned to Engine Co. 3 on Crane Rd as Tanker 18-4-4 but renumberd 18-4-1 in 1978 when our first tanker was sold. Tt also was refurbed by GK in either 1988 or 1989. In 1992 it was renumbered 18-2-3 by the Chief. Tt was replaced in 2005 by a KME as Engine Co 3's pumper. The engine was reassigned to Headquarters Engine Co. 1 and renumbered 18-2-1 where it is still in service as the second due/utility engine for HQ. If you pass our headquarters, it is in the 3rd bay from the right hand side of the bldg. It should be replaced in the next year or so. That will end an almost 50 year history of Oren apparatus in Mahopac. Tommy. thanks for posting the pictures. I remember the "good old days" with turnout gear hanging from the side.

It appears the Hatzolah crash was a seperate incident

It's a shame Paul Harvey died last week because I would sure like "The rest of the story"

Plus there's that whole Psychological exam.

I don't belive Putnam gave a test in November, they will establish a list from this test

The homeowner had his own excavator that was used

Add Putnam Lake 23-2-4 from standby at Pawling sta 1 to the scene

It all comes back to the donuts
