Fire Apparatus - New Jersey |
|
---|---|
The American Rescue Squad of Mt. Holly, NJ operates this big rescue. I can use more info on the truck if anyone has info on it. |
|
I was trying to get a little international with this shot of a truck from Berlin. Just down the road from Berlin is West Berlin. The Berlin Fire Company No.1 operates this 1993 Simon-Duplex/LTI ladder with a 73' ladder.
|
|
Another one of Berlin's apparatus is this 1990 Simon-Duplex/Saulsbury rescue, truck 2115.
|
|
After about 4 trips to the town of Beverly, NJ I finally managed to catch up with the fire company there. Beverly has three fire companies in town and this station has all green/white apparatus. They have some very nice equipment such as this 1989 LTI 75' ladder posed along the Delaware River.
|
|
Equally as nice is Beverly's 1996 Simon-Duplex/Marion pumper, engine 1211.
|
|
This 1987 Ford heavy rescue is probably the oldest piece with the Beverly Fire Company in Beverly, NJ and it looks like its in great shape.
|
|
This is a 1989 Pierce Lance operated by the Beverly Road Fire Company in Burlington TWP, NJ. The Beverly Road company is one of three in the Burlington TWP group consisting of Relief and Independent Fire Companies as well.
|
|
Newest apparatus in the Beverly Road Fire Company is this 1996 Pierce Dash. The Marina Blue color is fantastic and the truck is alway winning awards at the musters.
|
|
Now this is a beautiful royal blue on Billingsport Fire Companies equipment. Engine 1721 is a 1994 Saulsbury pumper. The emblem on the door of the truck shows the beautiful B-85 Model Mack that is the company's antique. The image of the antique is hand painted in the center of the emblem.
|
|
Still in service is this 1977 Mack CF that belongs to Billingsport Fire Company near Paulsboro, NJ.
|
|
No info on this Bordentown TWP KME truck seen here in Bordentown on highway 130.

I tried for at least three trips to get this shot and it still wasn't exactly what we had hoped for. My thanks to Scott Estelow of the Independent Fire Company for the help in setting up this great shot. The red truck is Independent, the white truck represents Relief, and the blue truck is from Beverly Road. All three fire companies are 100% volunteer and make-up the fire protection for Burlington TWP, NJ.

|
The town of Black Wood, NJ has some very nice equipment like this 1994 R. D. Murry/Spartan pumper. It is identical to a second engines, 842 that they operate.
|
|
Not be be outdone by the great looking pumpers of Black Wood, NJ, this is their 1996 rescue, R-42.
|
|
Almost an antique now is this 1977 85' Henderickson/Snorkel belonging to the Black Wood Fire Company in Jersey. Is a new ladder coming?
|
|
For the longest I thought this was Crews Landing, like a boat crew or something, but it is actually Chews Landing. I guess someone was named Chews in the town. This is just one of several beautiful pieces belonging to the Chews Landing Fire Company in Jersey. Its probably one of the last Hahns manufactured, a 1989 model which they have three of, two pumpers and this pumper/rescue seen here. All of their equipment is painted in the "Chicago" style paint scheme.
|
|
Another nice 1989 Hahn pumper from the Chews Landing Fire Company in Chews Landing, NJ.
|
|
Now here's a dynamite rig. Its a 1998 Seagrave/Aeroscope tower with a 95' reach. Another of Chews Landing's very nice pieces.
|
|
Delanco, NJ is just down the road from Beverly. This is a 1990 Pemfab/FMC pumper. It took me about 4 trips to the area to get Delanco's equipment and it was worth the trouble.
|
|
Engine 1114 is a 1998 Seagrave, the newest piece owned by the Washington FIre Company in Delanco, NJ. Story is that their equipment is yellow because when the town bought their first engine way back went, it was purchased from Seagrave site unseen. When it arrived by rail and was uncrated it was yellow so the color has stuck ever since. I like the colors.
|
|
The Washington Fire Company in Delanco, NJ is the owner of this 1973 Seagrave and its their antique.
|
|
A very attractive paint scheme is seen here on trucks belonging to Deptford, NJ. Engine 921 is a 1998 KME pumper one of several operated by the Deptford fire company.
|
|
Engine 941 is a Grummen pumper belonging to Deptford, NJ fire company. I noticed at least 4 different paint schemes for the town fire department. The black/white with the gold band is the newest and best scheme in my opinion.
|
|
Called a cascade and not a rescue is this 1997 KME belonging to the Deptford, NJ fire company.
|
|
Stationed at the Tacoma station near I-295 is this beautiful 1999 American LaFrance ladder. This monster is a knockout. I have seen similar paint schemes on two other fire companies in Maryland that I will have to track down and shoot. I really like the lines.
|
|
Now when's the last time you have seen a silver rescue sporting a blue scotchlite stripe. Its a 1989 Pierce Lance belonging to Endevor Rescue Squad in Burlington, NJ. In the town of Burlington there are 5 fire companies and Endevor. Up to about a month ago there were 6 fire companies, but two have merged. Very interesting town and worth the visit if you are into fire apparatus. With Beverly down the highway and Burlington TWP adjacent to the city there are 11 fire companies, one rescue squad and thats not counting Delanco all within this very small area of Jersey just across the river from Philly.
|
|
This is the only fire company I have found with tan apparatus. I am still looking for brown. Good Intent Fire Company of Mt Holly, NJ is the operator of this 1986 Pierce Dash seen here in front of the local high school.
|
|
Sticking out the backdoor of the Glendora, NJ fire company's station is this center control 1985 Pirsch which is probably one of the last model from Pirsch manufactured.
|
|
This sharp looking 1995 Ferrera/HME belongs to the Glendora Fire Company in Glendora, NJ.
|
|
Something very different is this 1997 R. D. Murry/HME ladder with a French built Nova Quintech 60' ladder. I may be mistaken, it could be a Canadian built ladder. Someone please let me know.
|
|
Gibbstown was preparing for a Santa Clause parade the day I was passing through town, but they were kind enough to pose L-21, their 2000 KME 75' ladder across the street from their station in Gibbstown, NJ.
|
|
Check out the Green Creek Volunteer Fire Company who won numerous awards at the 2006 New Jersey State Firefighter's Convention held in Wildwood, NJ.
|
|
Independent Fire Company in Burlington TWP, NJ operates Engine 3014, a 1986 Mack CF squrt.
|
|
Independent Fire Company's antique is this 1957 Mack. I believe it is a B-Model and it is in excellant condition.
