Camden Fire Department

A house full of Seagraves …

While spending a night with the Camden Fire Department, I was treated to an all Seagrave lineup … engine, truck (TDA), and heavy rescue. The fleet that once was all Seagrave, is currently a hodge podge of apparatus today, and this pairing was somewhat rare, though the truck and rescue were staffed by one company depending on the nature of the call.
