I think this is the memorial engine. This engine is dedicated to Lieutenant Jim Carney LODD 12/17/2017 and FF Mark Amore of duty death 4/16/2020. The engine may get retired but I don’t think it’s going anywhere. Also LRFPD does a pretty cool thing with their rigs. When they get a new rig and one of their members has a baby that year the name goes on the side of the rig.
