The Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority operates the Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia. I posted most of their apparatus on this thread already.



This past November, a new runway opened up, and in addition, the Dulles Airport opened its third fire and rescue station near the new runway. It is known as Fire Station 304.



I posted on this thread the new 2008 Oshkosh Striker known as Foam 352. This will run from the new Station 304. In addition, Foam 358, a 2001 Oshkosh T-1300 will also operate from the new station. Future plans call for an engine, tower, and medic unit at the station. Foam 356, a 1989 Oshkosh, is for sale.



Also new at Dulles is Foam 302, a 2008 Oshkosh 6x6 Striker 3000 with a 1950/3000/420. Similar to Foam 352, the newest crash truck has a 55' Snozzle.



Here is the new crash truck.

A clarification on the new Foam 302 - it has a 50' Snozzle (not 55'). I also learned that is has rear wheel steering, side and back cameras, and 4 undertruck nozzles.
