Another great looking Maxim tiller. White Plains Ladder 1. I believe this pic was taken at a parade in Nassau County. I guess back in the day rigs from Westchester and Nassau would attend each other parades more then they do today. Love the "bubble" window in the tiller cab.

I love Maxims, and the semi open cab looked great especially on tillers. Here is a delivery photo from Maxim of New Rochelle Ladder 2.
What would be interesting is if someone has a photo of this rig towards the end of its career. We can compare the different looks it had from untouched delivery fresh to years of fire duty and additions and modifications made by the department that ran it.

Great shots!

Cool Photos!

Hastings on Hudson Eng.3 a Seagrave Anniversary series Engine.

Looks like a rig, one could actually operate with and fight a fire, One doesn't have to be a member of the New York Knicks to get hose from the rear or mattydales

 
You hit the nail on the head right there, I couldn't' agree more. I really like the uncluttered and neat pump panel.
 
If my eyes aren't mistaken, is that a sight gauge on the pump panel.? I know numerous departments in Southern California still use them, I just noticed them last time I was out there. I thought it was a traditional thing. Pretty neat. How does it work?

Lookin good!!!

Looks great! Thanks for sharing the photos!

A friend of mine passed away a few months ago and his family gave me his collection of photos. There are boxes filled with photos, negatives, slides and manufacturer delivery photos. Going through it and scanning the good stuff I see there is some Westchester stuff. I'm going to put the good quality stuff up in this thread. He did a lot of photo buying/ trading so if there is a photographers name on the slide I will post it along with the image. First up is a 1964 ALF tiller from Hasting on Hudson.....Ron Bogardus photo.

The photos in this thread seem to be gone. Can they be reposted, or refreshed?

Looks like Goldens Bridge's new rescue pumper is moving along...

Fairfield Fire Department New Engine 2

Should be delivered in about 2 weeks time.

I definitely see applications for a tool like this.
 
 
 

A sneak preview....what an awesome truck! Loving the specs and the new solid red paint scheme!
 

 
 
 
 

These are also common among the historic squares here in Savannah. I also know of one large estate in Bedford that has one.
 

Fascinating.
