From what I understand 4 Fire Companies within Manheim Township merged into one operation in a sense. Joint training and purchasing to name the two that were mentioned while I was there. All the new rigs will be blue and the 4 engines purchased are actually rotated once every month or two to balance the miles... That's why there is a removable number plate on the new rigs. I think the Truck is radio designated as 204.

There are actually three fire companies in the township:
Eden
Neffsville
Southern Manheim
The four new engines will be rotated, with three in service and one in reserve. The three companies each have their own apparatus color scheme. Eden is white/chrome yellow/blue stripe; Neffsville is red and Southern Manheim is white/lime yellow/green stripe. Apparatus purchased by the Township are blue and white.
