  Bill, I am not sure what you refer to as new. The Ex Kollwood rigs are new to them but not new. The ladder remains unstaffed at station 1 and the Engine is frontline at station 2. This new Spartan will be frontline at Station 1 putting the 07 Squad 421 in reserve status. The 90’s engines and tower being sold currently.

  how many engines do they have I think 3 is that correct last time I was there 4 or 5 yrs ago they had a 1991 pierce a 1994 pierce and a 2007 pierce all engines so if that is correct then that would mean the ex Knollwood rotates maybe with the 2007 pierce and this new marion will be frontline all the time
