  6. Sharp squad cars. I could almost see the Sedan version on the streets of Port Chester in the near future, as most of their squad cars are that sedan type, although they use Chevrolets and not Fords.
  7. Thanks billfitz. So, Engine 300 is essentially a hose wagon? Also, weren't there a few old Seagrave aerials "mothballed" as well? And, what ever happened to the old Ladder 79 that was sent to fill in at New Roc and The Vern?
  8. Awesome photos Joe!!! But what about reserve Engines 298, 299, 300, 315, 316, and reserve Ladders 79 and 80(Tower Ladder)? Are they still in service or are these the only reserves in the fleet?
