Classic rig that I had the opportunity to see in person many times.


This actually a 1980 Seagrave PB that was originally purchased by the Greater Springfield VFD (Co 22) in Fairfax County, VA. The Strasburg VFD in Shenendoah County, VA purchased it from Springfield for $35,000 in 1985. After a $4000 refurb which included red paint in place of the white paint it originally carried, as well as upgrading the water tank from 500 to 750 gallons, it was placed in service in 1996. It has a 1250gpm pump and 750 gallons of water (US standards). It was purchased the collector in France from the Strasburg members.


Thanks for the photos!
