bulldogboy Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 No, the old Lake Street Fire Station. When the new Lake St. station was built in 1998, this station was renovated into Fire Alarm headquarters. The dispatch center is on the second floor and the wire guys use the tubroom for their equipment, repair shop, and parking their pickup and line truck. Those doors were rebuilt a few years before this ladder was stationed there. It originally was stationed at Central Station which was closed in 1971. bulldogboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyT Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Some nice equip.shown today gents! I am casually looking for a toy truck to fix up.High on the list is a B model,or an early 70's diamond reo.I considered doing a "Vintage Air" with the condenser under the stock bumper,because I didn't think there was room between the rad and the shutters on the b. There must be,since the owner of the dump must have put it there.Also,never thought of putting the dash unit under the seat,great idea ! You guys are nothing,if not innovative!!

j hancock Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I don't recall seeing this B61X before until this show. Weaver has run Macks for may years so the spokes may have been in their inventory of old R parts. The door tag indicated "X" and it had torque rods on the rear. I was talking to a couple of friends while taking pictures and failed to look at the rear spokes for shape. Went through one of Weaver's jobs and got a Mack in the mirror and one out the side. 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The square spoke hub is on the right front only; the left front is a period correct "B" hub. Apparently the right side has been replaced at some point.

bulldogboy Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) This 1970s Mack "R" model water truck worked at Rockingham Park in Salem, NH. The "Ole Rock" was a thoroughbred and harness racing track well known throughout the world of horse racing. It recently closed after 110 years of operation; in recent years there was no live racing, only simulcasting. I don't know the specs on this truck but as it only watered down the track between races it probably doesn't have a lot of mileage. This truck and other equipment will soon be auctioned off. Back in the 1960s I remember the "Rock" had a larger Mack "E" model (maybe an "EM" or "EQ") water truck. They threw a few lengths of 1 1/2" fire hose on the front fender and that was their fire truck to protect the stable areas. I wish that I had a picture of that truck. In 1980 the grandstand was destroyed in a spectacular fire; the "E" was long gone by then but it would have been a sight to see it fighting the fire alongside Salem's fleet of Mack "CF" apparatus. bulldogboy Edited September 18, 2016 by bulldogboy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wfothergill Posted September 29, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 29, 2016 I've been working on my new Superliner when I can find time between everything else. Removed previous Owner's lettering and had truck relettered and striped. Added new emblems and fender mirrors. Most of the aluminum has been polished, a little more to go! Looking forward to getting it registered and out on the road. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
