Wilmington (NC) Celebrates Fire Apparatus Arrival

The Wilmington Fire Department showed off its new pumper truck at a Roll-In Ceremony on Tuesday. The new fire truck has already been in service for about a month, but Tuesday's event gave firefighters the opportunity to ceremoniously roll out their old truck and roll in the new one.

The new fire engine features two-way hands free communications, a 500 gallon water tank, and a 20 gallon foam tank. The 2015 Pierce Velocity Pumper cost $570,000 for the apparatus and $30,000 for the equipment.

WFD Battalion Chief David Hines said that although the old truck was not a bad truck, it was nearing 15 years old.

Fire Apparatus Donated to Escanaba (MI) Public Safety

&nbsp;

After years of putting in the request for a new fire truck, the city of Escanaba Department of Public Safety got one.

The Escanaba Public Safety, which is responsible for fighting fires in the city, has had their current 75-foot ladder fire truck for years now, and it was time to get a newer one. A new fire truck could cost around $1 million, but the Department of Natural Resources donated this fire truck to them.

This fire truck is a 100-foot ladder truck. It will make its debut in the 4th of July parade on Monday, and it should be ready to use by the end of July.
