As mentioned in my last update,

AT-1 has a new rig. There 1988

E-One 135' Aerial Tower has been

replaced with a Pierce 105' rear

mount. It is built on the same

chassis that the Pierce Towers are

built on. Click on the photo to see

CFD trucks.

The latest group of pumpers to be

ordered have arrived and have been

built with Class A Foam. The new

Spartan / Crimson pumpers will be

assigned to Engine Company 42,

68, 93, 95 and 117.

CFD 646 is just one of the new

built on new Ford F-550 chassis.

which is on display at the FDIC

show in Indy. The new unit is

assigned to 6-3-1. It appears to be

really decked out.
