EDINBURG VOLUNTEER FIRE & RESCUE DEPARTMENT

TANKER 267

 

Tanker 267 is particularly vital to a rural fire department because we don't have the luxury of city water hydrants. 267 is an International Truck chassis with a 2200 gallon water tank. Engine 267 is equipped with a portable drop tank which is set up next to a pumper at a fire, the 220 gallons of water are dumped into the drop tank for use by the pumper, and 267 can immediately run for more water. In cases of a large or demanding fire, surrounding departments send their tankers in mutual aid to continually deliver water in a tanker shuttle operation.

THIS IS THE "BUSINESS" END OF 267!
