All Volunteer Stations, 19 & 79, Bucks County, PA

  On Tuesday, May 22nd, you may have seen some odd looking trucks coming through the center of town. That was because the Fire Company is looking to replace Ladder 79, a 1990 Pierce. In order to make the right decision, the fire company opted to have some of the manufacturers bring trucks through town to see how they would work for our applications. A representative from Pierce came to Doylestown to show off a Velocity Cab Tower Ladder and a recent purchase for Harleysville Community Fire Company, a 2006 Pierce straight stick. Here are some photos taken during the presentation. Check back for other photos from time to time as we begin to look at other options. Photos by Jeff Kennedy and Matt Grogan
