After 5 weeks of work training, ordering equipment, mounting tools and equipment, Engine 7-15-1 has been placed in-service as a front-line supression piece once again. Thank you to the many members giving up many hours of their personal time to prepare the engine for service.
On December 21, 2009, we placed our 22 year old Pierce Lance out-of-service, in preparation for the arrival of the 2009 Crimson Custom. The goal was to have the new engine ready for service by the end of January, which seemed like a huge, daunting task at that point. With the dediaction of the members, we did it. On January 30, 2010 at 1615 hours, the announcement was made by LCWC..."KGC755 to all stations...Engine 7-15-1 is back in service". We have no true count of the number of personal hours dedicated to the tasks, but we are sure it is in the 100's.

 On September 14, 2009 we received notification and a few photos that the Gladiator chassis had completed it's journey from the Spartan Plant in Charlotte, MI to the Crimson Plant in Brandon, SD. From this point, they are projecting our mid-point Inspection to be approximately October 15, with the Final inspection to take place approximately 4 weeks later (Nov. 12).
We will be posting updates as we get them, and any photos will be added to the  photo gallery. As always you can check progress on the Crimson-Fire website |
