I was thinking that the Raider and Royale were built by white in the early 70's before White sold DR to the oil man????? There was another construction company by the name of Kemp(??) that had a lot of the air cooled Deutz DR Giants. About 2018 - 2020 I saw one being used as a sign truck on the PA Pike. Then after Osterlund, who was in Carlisle PA, went out of business a group of his employees continued to build some trucks in Harrisburg PA under the name "T-Line" into the mid 20teens.

Dave, Thank you for this topic. I am not educated enough in fire apparatus to find out the details as most of mine were taken at shows. I always enjoy watching the vehicles work. I remember many years ago on Saturday afternoon at Macungie, in the field that is now transport parking there was a port-a-pond was set up and several trucks were working. I especially enjoyed the front mounted Arens Fox piston pumper jump up and down. Here is a picture of the display trucks working at the Vintage Trucks of Florida show in Leesburg FL about 4 years ago.

How is he able to pardon someone who has not been convicted of a crime?????? Due to "Slow Joe's" Mental incompetence I wonder how many of these were written by the "Deep State" people who surround Biden and shoved under his nose to sign, so they can cover their own a$$es????????

The first one in my 4 picture post is also a Brockway Torpedo lettered as being from Lyme Conn..

Here is another picture of the 1925, maybe you can read the sides better??? I do not remember the whole story on the Argentinian truck.. Possibility if Tom Millard (oldspwr) checks in he can tell us a lot more about it??? Also 2 more Huskiteeers the red one is retired City of Cortland and the yellow one might be owned my Mike Yarnell(???) as it is at Mucungie most years. The red 359 tanker behind them I think is a retired milk pick up tanker refurbished as a water tanker.

Here are some retired ones.. a couple are in the museum in Cortland NY. The 1925 was driven from Argentina to Cortland to trade it in for a new one. Needless to say the new one got a boat ride home.

Here are some active ones from the Cortland NY Brockway Show.

Aaron's tanker falls in a "Contractor" class is is called out on a for hire basis for large brush wildfires.

AGWAY's Fuel oil depot right on the river in Odgensburg!!!!!!!! When the thermometer on the side of the rack said 28 below and God only knows what the wind chill factor was across the frozen St. Lawrence?????

Back in the 70's when I drove for Matlack hauling for AGWAY farm suppply we blended any where between 25% to 50%, depending on weather and distributor specs, kero and #2 fuel in one hole barrel trailers while loading.

Welcome to the BMT site.. I see you are from Western NY, I am from the Finger Lakes now in South Carolina.. We love pictures!!! As long as they are not of snow butt deep to a 10 foot Indian!! This is a great group of guys who can eventually answer most any question asked. But DO NOT Mind us when we go off topic

The yellow one in the third row may be a Pacific?????

This is a normal problem.. When I went from a Vermont antique registration to a South Carolina title on my 49 Diamond T 201, I had to do the same thing.. Made an appointment and the girl came out took a look at the VIN plate on the cowl and took a picture on HER phone.. She did not ask to see the number stamped in the the frame and I DID NOT suggest it to her!!!!
