A couple of new deliveries in Loudoun County.

Two new 2009 International 7600/Pierce tankers have been placed into service at Hamilton Station 5 and Moorefield Station (Ashburn) Station 23.



Here is Hamilton's Tanker 605

job number 22361-02



Carries two 2100 gallon portable tanks.

And Ashburn's Moorefield Station 23 now has Tanker 623. Same specs as Tanker 605 except Tanker 623 has job number 22361-01.

This surprised me.....the new Fire Station 23 in Ashburn Moorefield Station is well underway.



Anticipated opening - Spring 2011.

I'm glad to see they went w/an F-series chassis on this go around. I never was a fan of E-series types when I ran there.

Great shots of the new tankers Mike! So, where did the former Tanker 605 ('06 IHC 7600/Pierce) go?

[Fire28]

I heard a rumor it could/would go to 618 but im sure mike can tell us. Mike is the new Reserve Engine 698, Squad 617, or Engine 605 in yet?

It is my understanding that old Tanker 605 is heading to Lovettsville to run as Tanker 612. When I was at Hamilton, I was told that may not happen. Hopefully some other firepic members who are a part of Loudoun can shed some light.

698 is in and is being prepared for service.



Squad 617 is not in but is close to leaving Pierce. Roto-Ray had a front end photo of it in his recent Appleton visit post.



The guys at Hamilton said they are going up to Pierce within several weeks for some final items on Engine 605.

If my memory serves me right, the original idea (or one of them) was to have the "old" Tanker 5 become a county ready spare......

[Fire28]

TA612 would be a good idea(M/A to Frederick Co. MD), Then again so would TA618 (M/A To Great Falls.....)



Any idea where E698 will be kept? I know 699 is at 23.

The County has purchased/renting a warehouse facility very close to the current FS 23 in Moorefield (Ashburn). I believe there will be room to house county reserve equipment. I will let others within Loudoun County provide additional information.
