Wow awesome pics! My dept makes good use of the surplus program too in the past we've had m880's a gama goat, cucvs and various trucks from old gmc fuel tankers to a ford 2 wheel drive stake bed now we're down to an 813 an a2 and an a3. the 813 and a2 are loaners but the a3 will be inspected by our rural fire coor. and they will give us the title to it.

In one of the pics I think I see the Big E grounds in the background. I use to go to Southwick's fireman parade as a kid, plenty of neat truck from the surounding towns.
Yup that would be the big E! Deffinately a cool place to check out if your a fire buff.
As a sidenote, those brush gaurds on the front of the FWDs, are actually filled with cement to keep them from crumpling when they push over trees (they can do this on cape cod's sandy soil).

Here are a couple more....amongst them, a water buffalo and a flood-light trailer. the last picture I cannot take credit for, it is from a fire buff website, but its such a neat truck that I wanted to share it! '43 GMC, pictures from ericsfirepics.com.
Also the M35 tanker picture shown here, was taken by a fellow firefighter at another district.
