Warrenton history. Factory photo of 1964? Ford\/Bean, 750\/500. Reg # B6706. Called a John Bean HPV Fire Fighter, and equipped with high-pressure capability.<\/p>\n

Delivered with two high-pressure fog guns, two 1 1\/2-inch pre-connected lines, three 2 1\/2-inch outlets, and 1,200-foot capacity hose bed. Cost around $18,000.<\/p>\n

Lettered as “No. 3,” meaning the third motor truck for the town, following a 1938 Ford\/Oren, and a 1910s ___\/Howe.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

Scanned from photo print from the collection of the (future) Plummer Hook & Ladder Museum in Warrenton. They’re a non-profit organization housed in the town’s old fire station, and who are steadily working on their facility and exhibits, but are still a ways away from opening to the public.<\/p>\n
