Which engine is Yorktown FD replacing?

The scuttlebutt from a year or two ago was that they were going to replacing R10 in time for the completion of the new addition. I am willing to bet this is going to replace 199 while YHFD is going to replace 275 maybe?

I heard bhfd get dispatched to the interstate not too long ago i guess they took it back. But a rescue pumper would be a good addition to them.

How old is the truck yhfd is replacing?

Looks like Seagrave got the BHFD bid. Not surprising considering there most recent apparatus purchases (TL57 and T5) have been Seagrave.

Good luck to them.
