Apparatus, Former/Retired

Truck 410 (Retired) - 1965 Ford C/American Fire Apparatus 85'   

Formerly serving the New York Mills FD in Oneida County, this rig was purchased for just $5,000 after the turntable and one entire side of the rig was replaced after suffering damage from a wall collapse. It was replaced in 2014 with a 1983 Pierce Arrow 85' rear mount ladder tower that originally served the Hawthorne FD in Westchester County. 

 

Rescue 512 (Retired) - 1992 International 4900/EVI 

Originally serving the Winonah Fire Co. in New Jersey, this rig was wrecked as the result of a "T-bone" crash. It featured a light tower and many large compartments. This rig was replaced with a 1991 Spartan Gladiator/SWAB heavy rescue that originally served the Hershey, Pennsylvania VFD.

 

Orion "City" Bus

Formerly operated by the City of Utica in neighboring Oneida County, this was the very first “Orion 1” model passenger bus built. It was donated by a local salvage company with the lightbars being supplied by two separate fire departments that had them as surplus equipment. Originally planned for use as a mobile office for the department’s field days (carnival), it has also been used as a command post during a prolonged haz-mat incident as well as for rehab purposes during harsh Central New York winters.

 

 

 

 

The "Hog", 3650 gal. tanker.  

A converted milk truck, one of the first large water haulers in the area, and being an old milk truck it had no baffles in the tank making it an interesting truck to drive with a partial load of water onboard.

 

Engine 129 (Retired) - 1976 Seagrave 1500 gpm/750 gal. 

Originally serving the River Edge FD in New Jersey, this rig was acquired by West Winfield in 1996 and served until being retired in 2015 (it is now maintained by a private collector on the muster circuit in the Central New York region). It featured a bronze pump and fittings to resist rust when River Edge drafted out of the Hackensack River.
