Searchlight Trucks

6 posts in this topic

Does anyone know of any designated serachlight rigs around the area, or ones that used to be in service? Although not designated as a spotlight truck, Mt. Kisco's old utility 16 or "light 16" is the closest thing i can think of to one of these pieces of apparatus.

Harrison FD had light truck # 1 till some time in the 90's.

Many of them have seemed to go by the wayside with the advent of smaller more powerful generators and compact light tower arrangments. Some old ones are pretty cool looking though.

Rye's Utility 39 is basically a light truck/generator with a lot of storage.

Tactical Support Units 1 and 2 evolved from the old Searchlight Units. That's about as close as we have here.

Yonkers OEM runs a searchlight units. However the dedicated truck died sometime ago and now has been replaced by a light trailer which is towed by a pickup.
