You answered this already but...



Quint Co.'s are staffed with 6

Ladder Co.'s are staffed with 4



Can this change from month to month or year to year?



Thanks.

Quints are no longer staffed with 6 there now staffed with 4. I also believe that the rescue's all also staffed with 4?



Engines = 4



Quints = 4



Ladders = 4



Rescues = 4?

They will be hitting the streets as soon as equipment is mounted and installed, including the Panasonic Toughbook computer, Knox Box key safe, and radios. The David Clark system came pre-wired from the factory.



Engines 20 (Foam), 28 (Foam), and 34 will be delivered next week to the Fire & EMS shops.



The ladders should be in soon....Pierce is putting some final touches on them.[/quote]

They are having some additional work done, and should be delivered shortly.



If all goes well, Quint 18 should be delivered sometime next week. Quint 36 is at the dealer, but no ETA for delivery at this time.

Thanks for the heads up on Quint 18. I'm plaining on going to Siddons next week then to get some shots of Quint 18. I'll try to keep everyone posted on when the new rigs go into service.
