Truck 54

 

1983 Sutphen 95ft Tower/Ladder

 

 

Truck 54, otherwise known as Tower 54, is Eureka's response to our growing commercial and residential presence in Hopewell Township and Stewartstown Borough.

 

Purchased from the Edina Fire Department in Minnesota, it is a great addition to the southern end of York County, not only for Stewartstown, but for the South Eastern School District as well, serving as the closest Tower/Ladder to the South Eastern School Campus in Fawn Grove.

 

 

Equipment highlights:

90ft Midship-mount Platform, w/ pre-piped waterway and dual discharge

1500 GPM pump

300 gallon water tank

2 pre-connected 2" cross-lay attack lines

210 feet of ground ladders
