Thought is would be nice to post a Lawrence, Kansas Fire Department up-date. Here is the current frontline fleet. They currently operate three Quint's, one Engine, one Tower, one Rescue, one Divison Chief from five fire houses. The entire front line fleet is now RED!!!
In reserve are Green, 1995 Spartan-Smeal 75ft quint, 1996 HME-Smeal 75ft quint, 2000 HME-Smeal 100ft Dry Truck, 2000 American LaFrance Engine.
FYI They are expecting another Engine this next year replacing Quint 4. Quint 4 will become Quint 3 and the current Quint 3 will become a reserve. That will bring the department to an all velocity front line fleet and they will have two Engine's, two Quint's, one Tower, one Rescue, one Divison Chief in front line service.
