As far as I know, Berwyn will most likely sell the current Seagrave Truck 904. There is no room at all for a spare ladder truck at either of the 3 houses.
Berwyn runs the following….
Chief 900 (2019 Chevy Tahoe) with 1 Shift Commander
Quint 9Q1 (2012 Pierce Quint) with 4 Personnel
Engine 902 (2016 Pierce) with 3 Personnel
Engine 903 (2009 Spartan) with 3 Personnel
Truck 904 (2004 Seagrave Ladder) with 2 Personnel
Ambulance 905 with 2
Ambulance 906 with 2
Ambulance 907 with 2 (Jump with Truck company)
If 907 is in quarters, they will jump to Truck 904 to make it a 4 man truck. If not, one of the ambulances will meet the truck on a run and pair up with 2 men on the Truck.

The Seagrave will be either a spare or disposed of. The Pierce Quint 9Q1 is a southside rig which they will continue to run as. The E-One will be the Truck company out of center station.

This is a very nice truck! I’m guessing the Seagrave ladder will be phased out and the Pierce will go into reserve? I didn’t think the Piece ladder was all that old…………
