Unit : Engine 11-1
Year : 1986
Model : Pierce Dash

Engine 11-1 aka the “WAR WAGON” is mostly used as a the 3rd out engine company for the company but don’t let “HER” age fool you, this old girl runs and pumps like she did on day one and is a firefighting work horse. Engine 11-1 runs many of the smaller limited access driveways and farm lanes that the bigger Engine 11-2 and Eng-Tanker 11 can’t access. Engine 11-1 is also the primary engine for handling transfers to other station. Engine 11-1 was the first out engine from its time of arrival in 1986 until the arrival of Engine 11-2 in 2005. During her years as the first out engine she saw more fire and pump for more hours then all of the other engines currently in-service at company 11 combined. This old War wagon still gets it done today and many members say she can run circles around the other engines.
