The Tanker was Peterborough NH, it got hit HARD in the left front corner by a drunk driver while returning from a fire. Insurance wouldn't total it and wouldn't put rails in it. May be worth looking at but I don't believe it drives straight. If anyone is interested I can get the inside scoop.

cstaples;

Thanks for the info. Ironically, Peterborough, NH's previous tanker, a Mack "R" model, was also severely damaged in an accident with a propane truck in 1997. While responding mutual aid to Rindge, NH

the tanker collided with a propane truck at the intersection of Rtes. 202 and 124 in Jaffrey, NH causing the propane truck to roll over into a building. Fortunately, there was no explosion. I believe that the

propane truck driver was cited for not yielding to fire apparatus.

Nashua, NH Public Works Department runs a fleet of these Mack "LE" CNG powered recycling and rubbish trucks. This particular one is a recycling truck; others are side loading rubbish packers.

There is also an "MR" CNG front loader rubbish truck. In addition to the Macks, there are also CNG powered Freightliner rear loader rubbish trucks. The City of Nashua has invested greatly in

CNG powered and hybrid vehicles for its municipal fleet.

Haybag (appropriate NH user name!):

Do you know what fire department that "B" model came from? Mack "B" fire trucks were: "B-75", "B-85", "B-95", and "B-125" models. If that is a "B-68" it must have been a commercial chassis

converted to a fire truck.
