I would like any delivery information available for apparatus constructed by Prospect Fire Apparatus or Hanley Fire Appartaus. Both of these companies were located in Prospect, Ohio.
I have already started a data base for Prospect which I will e-mail to anyone that may be interested. I only have information on a half dozen or so Hanley built apparatus and the data base will be created soon.
I also have a Summit Fire Apparatus listing.
These data bases are by fire department:
Ohio
Cincinnati
Dayton
Hamilton
Lima
Middletown
Norwood
Springfield
St. Bernard
Troy
Kentucky
Covington
Florence
Ludlow
Newport
Indiana
Madison
West Virginia
Wheeling
I'm interested in obtaining additional information for any of these listings. If you would like any of the databases e-mailed to you, just let me know.

I've started on a data base for New Lexington Fire Equipment. I have delivery information for all apparatus constructed from July of 2001 to present. If you would like a copy of the current data base, or have information of deliveries prior to 07-01-01, please let me know!

I failed to mention the largest data base that I have assembled! My Howe listing has information on 3,899 pieces of apparatus. I also have a listing of Grumman rigs. Always looking for additional delivery information for both of these!!

I've been piecing together a lsiting of Spncer Apparatus (South Haven, Michigan) if anyone wants a copy. I'm missing a lot of dates on this one as it has been compiled primarily from the Spencer and HME web sites.

I hate computers. For the second time this month we have had a virus attack slide by the Mcafee virus scan and destroy our machine. The first attack wiped out the inbox on our e-mail. The attack this week deleted everything from the hard drive. I lost all of my databases, some of which had taken 10 years of data input to create.
Yes, I was dense and did not have back up copies of many of the databases. So, if anyone has one of my lists could you please e-mail the list back to me.
Thanks,
Steve

Steve,
Just noticed your posting. I have a copy of your Howe listing on disk although its a couple of years old now.
I also have listings for
Nashville (This one has a bunch of holes, only a few serial numbers, and still missing some station addresses but it's getting there.)
Indianapolis I'm redoing this one to include station maps. But I do have a good listing of the houses and the rigs. (Albeit w/o serial numbers since I have only been there twice in the past 6 years) I also have a listing of retired but still standing house for them.
I've been working on some others like metro Harrisburg, PA area, State of Michigan I have a pretty good start but still have a way to go. Various others like LA City, LA County, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington DC. Should only take me a centruy to do all of these.
IF anyone would like to contribute more info I would sure appreciate it.

I recently bought a 1926 model Prospect chemical engine on a Graham Brothers/Dodge chassis. I would appreciate looking at your Prospect database.

Would it be possible for you to send me data on just New York State rigs. My specialty area is Long Island, NY and can probably fill in a lot of blanks for you.
