Good evening,

        I have a few questions for the Pennsylvania folks on here.

 

1) Lansdowne - Delaware County. I noticed that their heavy rescue is for sale. Are they downsizing or replacing?

2) Butler Township - Butler County - The newly created Butler Township Fire Co - I know they just got a new rescue, what other apparatus plans do they have?

3) York United - York County - with the purchase of the New Engine 89-1, what will happen with the current Pierce?

 

That's it for now, all info is appreciated.

Jeffery- Lansdowne is downsizing to a rescue-engine, so I am told.

In regards to Butler Twp:


It was created by a merger between Meridian, greenwood, and Lyndora. They currently have a Sutphen pumper for sale now that the new rescue is in. A new engine will be ordered within next 4 years. Lyndora's HME ladder truck appears to be staying around. The Greenwood Station will be the only one to close.

Also inButler county, Zelienople and harmony are merging .
