Station #2 housed a 1930 Ford Model A forestry fire truck

water and a large quantity of forestry hose. Engine 2 served
until it was replaced around 1944 by a Chevy former military
4x4 brush breaker Eng 7. The 1930 Ford is shown here
with the 1939 Buffalo 600 gpm pumper Engine 3 which served
in Monument Beach until replaced in 1972. It later
served as the Falmouth Fire Department muster team's Engine
8 in the 1970's-1980's. |

CONSERVATION TRUCK |
| The Commonwealth of
Massachusetts had several dozen forest fire trucks built in
1939 and the early 1940's. At least two of these
trucks were assigned to Cape Cod. A 1939 Ford COE was
assigned to Bourne early on serving at Buzzards Bay and
Pocasset stations. It later was assigned to the state
forest at Shawme in Sandwich. The truck carried about
250 gallons of water and a quantity of hose. Another truck
was assigned to Nickerson State Park in Brewster a couple
years later. The 1939 Ford is shown here at the
Pocasset fire station #4 with the 1934 Buffalo 600 gpm
Engine 5.

1941 MILITARY 4x4 SCOUT CAR BRUSH BREAKER

| Perhaps Bourne's first brush
breaker, this 1941 former Military Scout Car (or former
halftrack) identified as Bourne 11 has some basic bars and
protection. It appears to have a hose reel and
additional hose. The photo was taken along the Cape Cod
Canal. This truck is believed to have been stationed at the
Buzzards Bay station (as Engine 2?) and may have served
until about 1968. |

1943 CHEVY MILITARY 4X4 BRUSH BREAKER 9 |
| Bourne operated this 1943 Chevy
4x4 former military Class 110 "crash truck" as a brush
breaker. It would have had a 100 gpm centrifugal PTO pump
and carried about 250 gallons of water and an assortment of
equipment. Bourne ran this and a couple similar trucks
to structure fires as well because of the tank water and
quick attack capability. This truck served in Buzzards
Bay and was assigned to Pocasset in 1975 until retired in
1977. |

| Bourne Fire Department built
this brush breaker on a 1944 Chevy 4x4 former military fire
truck (Class 135?). The breaker had both a front mount
fire pump and a rear mount fire pump allowing pump & roll
capability. Engine 7 (aka Breaker 127) carried about
600 gallons of water. It was assigned to the Monument
Beach station 2 from 1944 until about 1986. This truck
is very similar in design to a brush breaker believed to be
operated at Camp Edwards at about the same time. |

NO.1 C-15 |
In 1939 Barnstable County built
its first Brush Breaker. This truck had a 1939 Ford COE
10 wheel chassis with an 85 HP flathead Ford motor and
Marmon Harrington all wheel drive transmission. With a
body built by Robinson Boiler Company in Cambridge, MA, the
truck had a 10000 gallon water tank and 125 gpm pump.
It was capable of about 30-40 mph over the road.
When brand new the truck was housed in the new Cotuit
Fire Station built in 1937. In 1942, when Barnstable
County built a second brush breaker, the 1939 truck was
reassigned to the Falmouth fire headquarters where it
remained until 1953 when it was transferred to the brand new
North Falmouth Fire Station built in 1953. In 1957 when this
truck was replaced by a 1957 Ford / Maxim brush breaker, the
1939 Ford spent about a year in West Barnstable and then in
1958 became Gay Head's first brush breaker on Martha's
Vineyard. |

In 1939 Barnstable County built
its first Brush Breaker. This truck had a 1939 Ford COE
10 wheel chassis with an 85 HP flathead Ford motor and
Marmon Harrington all wheel drive transmission. With a
body built by Robinson Boiler Company in Cambridge, MA, the
truck had a 10000 gallon water tank and 125 gpm pump.
It was capable of about 30-40 mph over the road.
When brand new the truck was housed in the new Cotuit
Fire Station built in 1937. In 1942, when Barnstable
County built a second brush breaker, the 1939 truck was
reassigned to the Falmouth fire headquarters where it
remained until 1953 when it was transferred to the brand new
North Falmouth Fire Station built in 1953. In 1957 when this
truck was replaced by a 1957 Ford / Maxim brush breaker, the
1939 Ford spent about a year in West Barnstable and then in
1958 became Gay Head's first brush breaker on Martha's
Vineyard. |
