  To my understanding, there is no plan on getting rid of the Ferrara. One of the new engines will be housed at the new station when it opens.

  Glad they will be getting two new engines! I was wondering what they were going to get to replace the Pierce engine that was totaled. I wonder if they will sell the Ferrara once these two engines arrive? I believe they are opening a station 2, my guess one of the two engines on order will go to the new station.

  Alexis makes a good rig. This is very different from the Pierce Enforcer that was wrecked and subsequently totaled. Glad Hampshire is able to find new equipment within a short period of time when the major apparatus builders are 4 years or longer out on production!

  When is this new Alexis and the Pierce Saber expected to arrive?
