    At PEMO3, yes New Jersey does. They have the Kidde Neptune Pumping system. There are three (3) complete units situated in the state. There is one in Union County, one in Gloucester County & the last is in Morris County. System consist of three basic units. The first in the roll off mounted Kidde pump capable of 5000 - 8000 GPM. The next is the 12-inch hose on hydraulic reels mount on flatbed trucks. The last is the Iron Man monitor capable of 5000 GPM discharge.
    The Union County system was in use a Seaside with the Morris County system on location standing by incase it was needed.

    Come on Guys. Let get real. Sounds like Riverside Hose company was not the one getting HOSED!! Sounds like they were trying to HOSE the city. $620,000 for an ENGINE. This is what's wrong with the volunteer fire service. Why do you need apparatus with all the bells and whistles on it?? All this does is drive the cost of the apparatus up. Does it make it more usefull, better?? NO!! For $620,000 you could but two Class A engines into service in any city. Folks need to start purchasing what's useful and practical for the city. I think in the times were are in, the city did a smart move and put the fire company in their place. And yes, I agree with several of the writers, that although the Crimson name only is relatively new, it is not a new piece of apparatus. This was a merger of two outstanding fire apparatus manufacturers. So, Riverside Hose your squirting the wrong hose.
