Back to Aldie and their 1996 Pierce Dash. I had heard that once Aldie received their new Smeal Sirius, they had planned on selling the Dash to Loudoun County to be used as a reserve engine. I am not sure what happened to that plan but Aldie did sell the Pierce - to the Sterling Volunteer Fire Department, also in Loudoun County.
It now runs as Sterling Wagon 11 and is a 1996 Pierce Dash 1500/750 with job number EA083.
Several other interesting changes at Sterling. Quint 18 (one of two identical 2000 Spartan/Smeal 75' 1500/500) has been sold. The crew believes that it went to a FD in Indiana. In addition, they told me a new 105' Quint has been ordered, they believe from Smeal.
