Anything else on order other than the towers from Pierce. I saw at least two last month, one going to Rockville.

Just announced 24 Pierce Enforcers ordered. These are very different than what they have now. These are short wheelbase, low hose bed, awesome looking trucks. What spurred the change in design? Total truck is under 30' with no front bumper extension.

What prompted the change was the Rigs ordered by the Corporations were far superior to the Junk bought by the previous 3 Fire Chiefs. I would guess they liked the DCFD Spec.

Looks like it was a little bumpy considering the tractor and trailer are uncoupled and one is facing up and the other down! Glad driver was ok...

RE: Montgomery County MD - Tillerman1664 - 06-10-2019
MCFR has a bit of new apparatus coming in the near future.
I'll start with these 4 commercial brush Engines by Rosenbauer. 14441-44-montgomery-county-fire-rescue-services
They are replacing the old Internationals at 13, 14, 17 and one will go to 22. The old units will be disposed of because of age.
RE: Montgomery County MD - Tillerman1664 - 06-10-2019
The next 3 of the 24 Pierce Engines are in post preduction and will be asigned to 18, 26, 31.
All reserve engines will be Crimsons by the end of 2019 and each Battalion will have one station keeping their Crimson for CAFS.
Two Tankers were placed in service at station 13 and 31. They were built by UST Patriot through FESCO on Freightliners.
http://www.fescosales.com/gallery-more-info/?vehicle_id=3008
The Tanker at 31 went into reserve fleet and the old Freightliner tankers that served 14 and 17 will be disposed of because of age.
Funding for 3 new Rescue Squads has been secured and are in the engineering phase and will be going to 3, 17, and 29.
2 of the current 3 will go into reserve fleet, and the third as well as the Spartan that has the body from the old BCC Kenworth that was recked and remounted will be disposed of. Burtonsville VFD is also engineering a new RS.
15 new Ambulances are also being built.
The wrecked TDA that is posted above will get repaired and sent to the academy as Truck 727.

Any idea when new aerials will be purchased?
