Shop serial S-105, 1998 Seagrave 1500/500, 1998 - 2011
S-105 was one of two rescue pumpers purchased from Seagrave in 1998, an era of company disbandments and on-duty staff reductions for the DCFD. It was the first Seagrave acquisition in 50-years. It came equipped with cutters and spreaders and served Engine Co. 31 until replaced by a similar Seagrave in 2004. She went on to perform almost non-stop work as reserve pumper E-61, then as warehouse-reserve (not “ready-reserve”) E-70. It was recently removed from the inventory.
1998 – 2004 E-31
2004 – 2007 E-61
2007 – 2011 E-70
2011 – Disposed
