Someone asked about seeing a Purple Engine. I don't have any details about the engine, other than it is from Violetville Vol Fire Dept.

Here's the real fire trucks from Clinton VFD!


It appears that Violetville liked the paint scheme so much they had to have it too, even the door seal was copied.

That shot SUCKS!  Poles in the background, poor lighting, shadows on the side, rig not parked on a flat surface.  It doesn't show enough of the front of the rig either.  The photographer should be slapped upside the head!

So, please do not post any more of MY pics on this site!

He's swing at the pitch. It's a line drive right back to the pitcher, knocks him out!

Hahahaha! Hey GA_Dave, as long as you don't admit that that photo was taken by you last week, you're ok

Nah, it had to be at least two weeks ago!

Elmira College's hockey team Booster Club uses this decommissioned American LaFrance 700 Series pumper as a booster mobile to get to games and such. The pump is still there but the tank was removed to fit bench seats in the hose bed. Can you guess what the team colors are?

Don't know what year it is but it once served Big Flats, NY and Breeseport, NY.
