Last year, Loudoun County Fire and Rescue began an aggressive program to update their tankers, especially in the West End departments. Unlike the eastern end of Loudoun County where there are numerous fire hydrants (Sterling, Ashburn, Leesburg), west end communities have many areas where there are no hydrants. New tankers were ordered, and all were to carry a minumum of 3,000 gallons of water.
The first tanker purchased by the Loudoun County government was assigned to Hamilton as Tanker 5 and was built by Pierce. The county ordered one of these units.
