Ahhh yes.... Good old Agnes.... That truck made some serious impressions at the 68 East Hartsdale Ave fire in the early 90's when it operated its ladder pipe while supplying a Yonkers engine and New Rochelle ladder... Good times!!

Awesome! Thanks for the photo. I loved that truck, very progressive for the time (and the Quad)!

What happened to it after it left Elmsford?
