Apparatus 1104 is a 1995 Emergency One. This triple combination  pumper was sent to E-One as a 1978 Pirsch. The engine, pump, transmission and rear end were salvaged to build this as a "refurbished" fire truck. This saved the fire district approximately  $75,000.00. It has a 750 gallon tank with a 1250 gallon per minute two stage Hale pump. It carried a Hurst tool and other extrication equipment. It was in front line service since 1995 until it went into reserve status in October of 2000 when a new E-One was put into frontline status. 

Originally a 1981, this Sutphen 100 foot aerial platform quint was sent back to the factory in 1999. The tower and compartments were refurbished and a new enclosed cab was built. This aerial-quint is back in service after being gone nine months during that construction. This is now known as Ladder 1. Ladder 1 was sold in March of 2009. It's replacement will be a 2009 Pumper and will be put into front line service. That pumper is to be delivered in late April to mid May. At that time Ladder 2 will go into reserve.
 

Apparatus 1103, 1985 Smeal, triple combination pumper. This unit has a compressed air cascade system for refilling SCBA's on the scene. This unit went into reserve status in 1998. It was taken out of service in October of 2000 and sold as a trade in for a new pumper. It carried a Hurst tool and other extrication equipment, including cribbing. It has a 600 gallon tank and a 1250 gallon per minute Waterous pump. 

This is the latest addition to the fleet. It is a refurbished Freightliner beverage truck that carries a wide assortment of tools, spill and dikeing materials, advance rescue equipment and a SCBA air cascade system. It was put into service in early August of 2002. A local realtor agency is spearheading a fund raiser to help pay for this truck and the added equipment.
