1968 Mack Pumper

13 posts in this topic

Hello everyone. This is my first attempt to post a picture in the Protection from the Past topic so I hope you like it.

I was at the County Haz-Mat Drill last night, and when we were finishing up we returned the gear to the county jail yard where we keep all county equipment, and sitting in the parking lot (Right under a street light fortunately) was this beautiful 1968 Mack Pumper from Granville. (Hey Seth, you try and start your own fire department lately! ;) )

Anyone know where Granville is? Is this truck familiar to anyone? I hope my picture quality is ok, I tried using the flash but it was even worse, so I took them with natural light and this is what I got. Hope their ok!

Initially, i was thinking the same thing, but upon further research... Granville, NY is way up north, about 30 Miles NE of Lake George, right on the NY/VT Border.

Schoharie County, 45 minutes west of Albany NY. Located in our County Jail yard where our dispatch center is located. We keep our county vehicles and equipment there until our new Training center is built, then this engine will be for the training center I hear.

Wow! Hey Josh, I have another Haz-Mat Meeting Monday Night, I will snap a few more shots of the pump and interior for you. This is great! I will find out more about the truck too.
