This 1947 Mack Fire Truck was operated by the former Wyomissing Fire Company #1 and served from 1947 until 1975.  The truck was sold to a private collector, but was eventually returned to the Wyomissing Fire Company #1.  This engine, which is fully operational, has undergone extensive renovation.  It is used for parades, musters, and fire prevention activities. It is currently housed in a spare engine bay in the basement of the Wyomissing Fire Department.

This 1935 Hahn engine was purchased new by the Berkshire Heights Fire Company #2 and has been owned by the Company since that time.  This undated photo was taken in front of the original Berkshire Heights Station at North Wyomissng Blvd and VanReed Road.    It is currently housed in the old engine room of the Berkshire Heights Fire Company on Park Road North.   It is still brought out occassionally for parades and fire prevention activities.  (The driver in the photo is unknown.  If you can identify him, please let us know.)
