Most of the trucks in the collection are owned by Andrew Leider. The collection is in Circleville NY. I think his plans are to open the building as a museum.

Insane is the word. I SAW this collection last fall. Mr. Leider is very nice, but very busy. At the time, he was running for town council - not sure if he was successful.

The building was STUFFED full of firetrucks. It's amazing to see so many ladder trucks especially, under one roof. The neatest part, is that he's got a shop area with HEAVY lifting equipment, two overhead cranes, so there's very little he can't do.

On the other hand, there was no running water. Go figure. It's a neat collection, but as of yet, very disorganized. It's a long way from being a museum, but I wish him luck.
