Engine 47-1
Pasted Graphic

An "old reliable" 1983 FMC pumper, this is our "quick attack" truck as well as being a good general-purpose fire engine. It's seen all sorts of calls, from brush fires to house fires and just about everything in between. Sadly, this engine no longer meets Bucks County requirements for a Fire Engine, so we are trying to raise the $350,000 it will take to replace this truck. This truck will remain in service until we can replace it.

Engine 47-1 has a 750 Gallon Per Minute Pump, two 1 1/2" pre-connects, a 3" preconnect, 1500' of 3" line, a full set of forestry firefighting equipment and a host of other tools on board. It's well-equipped for all kinds of local incidents. This truck still has a "tailboard" - the classic "ride on the back of the firetruck" position for firefighters, although we no longer are permitted to ride the tailboard.


Rescue 47

Rescue 47 is equipped for removing entrapped victims of motor vehicle accidents and other general rescue operations. We carry Holmaltro Tools - an "O" cutter and a spreader/cutter as well as many other tools and equipment. In addition to rescue work, Rescue 47 is often called into service as a "utility" truck for everything from basement pump-outs to investigations. Previously, this truck was an ambulance in service in Pattenberg, NJ Station 25. This vehicle went into service in early 2007. It's built on a Ford chassis.

One of the finest brush trucks in the area, this Ford F-350 is light, fast and effective. With 250 gallons of water on board pumped to a large hose reel and carrying a good assortment of brush fire tools, this truck can get to the fire faster, can go deeper into the woods and can be maneuvered more effectively than larger vehicles. It's equipped with a Warn winch as well. This truck has even been used as a quick attack truck for car fires! We also use this truck to haul Marine 47 to the river and to other marine rescue calls, and have used this vehicle as a command post for some incidents.

Marine 47
(no picture, sorry)
Our boat gets out mostly in the summer time, and occasionally in the winter. The primary mission of the Marine unit is search and recovery of bodies in the Delaware River, although in the summer of 2004, we did deploy the marine to pursue and an extinguish a boat that had exploded and caught fire under the Milford-Upper Black Eddy Bridge. Marine 47 has even been to jobs as far away as Yardley, Pennsylvania during floods.
