DUXBURY MAXIM BRUSH BREAKER 47 RETIRED
Duxbury Fire Department had two twin 1988 International / Maxim Brush Breakers
that had approx 350 gpm pumps and 750 gallon tanks.

Breaker 47 was refurbished  in 2008.

The truck developed a rust issue over the years that have led to its retirement.
On July 17, 2025  the two trucks were taken out together one last time
to document this unique team of brush breakers.

Breaker 47 was replaced by a non-brush breaker ending a unique history.

Thanks to Duxbury Deputy Brian Monahan for inviting me along for the ride.
