Glendale, California purchased this Crown Telesqurt in 1979.  Serving as Wagon 26, she carried serial number F1803 and was
the last standard cab Firecoach built before production completely changed over to the new widecab design.  She was fitted with
a Pierce body, 50 foot Telesqurt, 1,500gpm Waterous pump, 300 gallon water tank and powered by a Cummins NTC-350
diesel motor with a Spicer 5-speed manual transmission.
This same rig appeared on the cover of Firehouse Magazine in November of 1994.  In the cover photo, she was at a major
incident at a chemical plant.  Photo was snapped just as an explosion occurred.  There were no injuries and no damage to the rig
with the exception of a small fire that ignited in the hose bed which was quickly extinguished as she continued pumping.
She was retired in early 1995 a
nd sold.
