Boston Fans: New Rigs

Over the past weeks, Boston has taken delivery of two new engines, two 110′ rear-mount ladder trucks, and a new rescue. The engines are E-One/Cyclone II’s assigned to Engine Company 21 and Engine Company 24. The new trucks are E-One/Cyclone II’s assigned to Ladder Company 6 and Ladder Company 24. Rescue 2 received a new KME Predator. Prior to this, the latest delivery was Ladder 26′s new truck, replacing the one destroyed in the accident that claimed Lieutenant Kevin Kelly. You can see photos and details of the entire fleet at Local 718′s Facebook page. Apparatus details are also listed here, courtesy of A-65, Belin.
