Vernon Fire Rescue Services has received a new dual-functioning Pierce fire engine that will replace both a 34-year-old engine and a 17-year-old rescue truck, reports Vernon Morning Star.
It’s also received a new ladder truck that is replacing its 28-year-old predecessor.
The two vehicles are expected to be put to work on Nov. 16, and to celebrate there will be a “push in” ceremony and public open house at Fire Station #1 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
