  Dirk, you must have slept at the pump house on Route 83.

  2812 should be a Posen ambulance, that’s not to say it wasn’t owned by Vandenberg after Posen dumped it.

  Is that ambulance marked 2812 an old Vandenberg unit? I worked for them way back in the day and it looks familiar. They had two Horton’s and we did cover Crestwood.

  Milwaukee had a 1964 version like that until 1989. That was the rig that really got me interested in fire apparatus as a youngster. Here’s a twist, I found out years after it was gone that it was built the same year as me.

  I wonder when the new Seagrave engines will be delivered….
