This apparatus has a 1,500 Gallons Per Minute (GPM) pump, and carries 1,000 gallons of water. This Rescue Pumper also holds Hurst Edraulic tools.
The vehicle was up-fitted by Hudson Valley Fire Equipment with all of the graphics, tool mounting and communication installation.
This Rescue Pumper will be designated as Engine 186.
A big thank you to the Somers Fire District Board of Fire Commissioners for their hard work and funding on this project. The Somers Fire District does a tremendous job ensuring that we have the best equipment possible to accomplish our mission of saving lives and property.
Yesterday, some of our members were out training on the new rig getting familiarized!
