fxfymn Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Quote I have very little info on this one, photographed at a parade in Baltimore many years ago. Engine 343, Violetville, MD (retired) 1941 Mack/1947 VFD refurb Most likely a Type 45A or 405A because it does not have the shield below the radiator that the ENF510A powered A models had. It also looks like a 500 GPM pump based on the two 2 1/2" discharges. As Jim said most likely built between 1950 and 1954, although Mack special built 5 more A models in 1956 for customers in LI, NY. 1 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

From the info I do have, the original build was in 1941 and that it was rebuilt after a wreck, supposedly in 1947, but perhaps that is when the wreck took place and the rebuild was later, using sheet metal from an A model. I think I was told that it was originally an E model. I would agree on it being a Type 45 and those were 500 GPM. I have my theories, but I have been unable to confirm anything.

After looking at the picture more closely I'd agree. The top of the windshield just doesn't look right for an A model and in fact could have been a closed cab that they converted since Mack usually used just a chrome frame around the windshields on both the semi and open cab trucks. Either way it is a neat rig and I'm glad you are able to share it with us. 1 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

General Ike Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 That CF Aerialscope Tower from Hazel Twp is still in service. They've also got a Granite elliptical tanker. Used to run a MR heavy rescue and a CF pumper.
