Lockport Lt. John Mathews has provided us information and a photo of their 1999 Pierce Dash quint which recently came back from being totally refurbished by Pierce. This is the reserve ladder truck which is housed at Station 6. Some of the work that was performed includes:

  • complete disassembly, sanding, and repainting of the aerial
  • the aerial was white and is now silver
  • all new electrical wiring, steel cables, and wear pads
  • new ladder signs to match the tower ladder
  • updated graphics
  • the stokes basket storage box was updated to match the tower ladder
  • complete body repaint

The unit is lettered as ‘Truck Company’ without any specific numerical designation
