Our Apparatus:
Station 86 houses a rescue pumper, first class pumper, brush unit, water rescue boat and a no longer in service utility vehicle.
Engine 86-321
86-321 is a 1993 Pierce Dash custom pumper. Designed from the ground up by our truck committee enging 86-321 is unique in many ways. Because of the station limitations at the time 86-321 had to fit in a ten foot high door. Engine 321 was the first enclosed cab, center mounted pump panel, hydraulic ladder rack and the first fire unit to incorporate the city seal into its design. This unit carries 6 firefighters, 750gal of water, 1250 gal/min waterous pump, Hurst combi-tool, airbags, hydraulic rams, cribbing, full medical compartment with AED and repelling equipment.
Engine 86-721
86-721 is a 1982 Seagrave pumper. Purchased new it had two sister engines in the city. Engine's 93-511 and 611 which have both been replaced. While still a functioning unit in near mint condition it is the next unit slated for replacement due to it's age and non enclosed cab. Originally able to carry five firefighters it is only able to carry three now. Our policy of no one being allowed to be in a non enclosed part of the cab has limited it's capabilities. This unit carries 750gal of water with a 1250 gpm pump. It is strictly set as pumping engine and fullfills the role of a second out unit from station 86.
Brush 86-623
Currently the newest unit in our fleet this is a 1997 Dodge 2500 4x4 with a 130gallon water tank, 350gpm twin cylinder 20hp waterous pump. 150ft of 1 3/4 preconnect, 150 ft of forestry hose and 200ft hose reel. There is a gated 2 1/2 inch intake and two preplumed 2, 2 1/2 discharges. Several residental structures in our first due area are only accessible via private bridges in which a pumper cannot cross. This unit is the first due unit for those addresses.
