Buchanan Engine Donates Apparatus
March 2004

On March 28, 2004, our 1955 Utility Vehicle entered the Fireman's Home Museum in Hudson, NY as a tribute to this state's past apparatus. This apparatus was hand built by the members of Buchanan Engine in 1955 as a pumper. It was later  converted to a rescue truck. Most recently it was our first mobile air cascade vehicle. It is now on permanent display at the museum. Members of Buchanan Engine accompanied the vehicle on its final run to the Museum.
