Next stop to show you is the Wilton, CT Fire Dept. Same great host here that was at the Wolcott Fire Dept. He was kind enough to move and pose every rig at both departments for us! My feeble old mind can't quite remember the guy's name but he fed us lunch both days! Notice the food sticks in my brain but his name doesn't. Sorry 'bout that. Anyway, first up in Wilton is this big ole honking rig of Engine 4, a 1994 E\-One Cyclone 1500/2500 Tanker, Job #13781.

Now, the same great guy that hosted us and fed us lunch reportedly had some sort of issue with the windshield on this rig. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Wink' /> I won't elaborate on it but word came right from the chief himself. Anyway, Engine 3 is a 1994 E\-One Hurricane 1500/750 Pumper, Job #13779.

Truck 5's rear-steer feature enabled it to do a circle in the ramp area of the station to pose for the photo. It's a 2004 Pierce Dash 105' Ladder, Job #15776.

Not so affectionately referred to as "The Produce Truck", Utility 6 serves as the Wilton Fire Dept's HazMat rig, "stuff" hauler or whatever else it's called upon to do. It's a 2005 International 4200/Morgan.
