  2. Firematic told me they're 15 months from contract signing to pre-construction right now and stopped taking orders for 2022 at one point. We're expecting delivery in May/June but like you mentioned, that could changed. They're having supply chain issues due to having to import the raw material that is used in making axles. They used to make them in the US but I was told that due to the emissions deal in the US, they were forced to have to import.
  3. Village of Ossining has approved the purchase of a new 1500 gpm E-ONE pumper for Ossining Steamer Company from Premier Fire Apparatus.
  4. Ossining FD has taken delivery of a 2017 KME Severe Service pumper. The unit, designated as Engine 101, replaces a 1993 E-One Hurricane 1250/750. The Village of Ossining has also approved to accept bids to furnish and deliver a new 22 passenger command vehicle. The new apparatus features (as per KME): • Cummins ISX 500HP Engine • Allison 4000 EVSR Transmission • 1500gpm Hale Q2 Dual Stage Fire Pump • 660 Gallon Water Tank • 25 Gallon Foam Cell • High Side Compartmentation
  5. Members of R14 are currently using Utility 153 to respond out of. They have the confined space equipment and other items in the spill response trailer to respond with. It will be gone for approximately 90 days. I believe it's currently at the E-One factory in Florida. They're going to be doing a ton of work to it and will essentially be a new apparatus when completed. It was cheaper to refurb then to purchase a brand new one, especially when looking into the near future when Ossining has 4 pumpers due for replacement coming up over the course of the next few years (101,98,96,100). 2 of which are due in the near future.
  6. Nice send off for it. Best of luck to you guys on the new engine and to TOB VFD on theirs as well.
  7. That's actually where I got my info from, combined with IFCO's facebook page.
  8. It's the Town Of Broome Volunteer Fire Department in Middleburgh, NY that was devastated by Hurricane Irene a couple years ago from what I understand. It was donated for $1.
  9. Serving as Tower Ladder 228 for them and replacing a 1973 Telesquirt

  11. Are they going to keep it as is or are they going to re-paint it to their colors and put their decals on the truck?

  13. Have you asked your doctor(s) what they'd recommend? Might want to try that if you haven't.
