SP20007 was assigned to 257, but is now lettered for CTS. Why was such a relatively new apparatus reassigned, and what is 257 using now?
it seems they got the the one from the same year that CTS used to run SP20004 it look like in pictures...my guess would be in order to get more spread on the hours between them...

E257 Is Now Using [SP20004], Ex CTS. SP20007 Had Multiple Issues On Top Of The Klein Fire (Lots Of Pump Issues, Etc). Advanced Testing Showed That A Fault was located at the “ground crimp connection” on the chassis above the transmission. I Am Assuming This Is Why The CTS Was Reassigned To E257.

Are any new pumpers scheduled to be received before the end of the year?

I don't believe so. The next batch of pumpers are the 2015 KMEs and replacement is required by the middle to end of 2025 and 2026. Remember they changed the pumper replacements to 10 years, 364 days and 59 mins. As Per previous contracts the last delievered must be in the shops by 2359 hrs

The FDNY placed a order for....
8 SQUAD PUMPERS
7 HIGH PRESSURE PUMPERS
8 SQUAD PUMPERS
7 HIGH PRESSURE PUMPERS
The last one on the current order is in the city shops,E292. You probably won't see and new pumpers / squads / high pressure, until late next year
The next batch would be the sandy replacements, 2014, mix of seagrave and kme

157 is next up for a 75'
does the 8 squad pumpers include squad 8's new rig they allready got or is that 8 more plus the new one 8's got? (making it 9)
SQ*8's current piece is reportedly to become a spare.

i highly doubt they are going to replace a 3-4 year old rig....
It'll be five years old and there is a need another spare. If the city tore down an EMS station right after it was built this is small potatoes.

Current rigs are in pretty bad shape so that’s why they added another one

Squad 8s fairly new apparatus will NOT become a spare. All l can say is that there are 8 new SQUAD PUMPERS on order and have been assigned to company's.
Also since everybody is talking about the new TL order, the one everyone is talking about that's not lettered ect is a 75" assigned to 157. The next TL off the production line will be a 95', followed by a 75' then a 95" ect.
