Engine 1

  • Manufacturer: Pierce Fire Apparatus

  • Year: 2005

  • Purpose: Water Supply/Fire Attack

  • Pump Size: 2,250 GPM

  • Tank Size: 500 Gals.

  • Officer: Lt. Ryan Blake

  • Assistant: FF Frank Pingelski

Engine 1 is a Class A Pumper with the ability to play the role of attack engine at a fire scene. The primary function of Engine 1 is to provide a continuous water supply to the department's other attack engines (E-3, E-4, and E-7) through a large five inch diameter hose. Designed and built by Pierce Fire Apparatus in Appleton, Wisconsin, Engine 1 has some key characteristics that enable it to deliver large amounts of water ? continuously ? from water sources up to a mile away from a fire scene. With a massive 2,250 gallons per minute pump and a large array of drafting hoses and strainers, this engine can be staged at any one of dozens of natural and man-made water sources (ponds, rivers, swimming pools) where it can single handedly deliver all the water that is needed to most any fire, large or small. Through a comprehensive mapping system created and maintained by the WVFD Water Supply Committee, and a series of dry hydrants which are quick connect 'access points', Engine 1 can effectively blanket the town with an unlimited water supply.

Engine 2

  • Manufacturer: Pierce Fire Apparatus

  • Year: 2018

  • Purpose: Tanker

  • Pump Size: 1,000 GPM

  • Tank Size: 2,500 Gals.

  • Officer: Lt. Eric Carter

  • Assistant: FF David Bedusa

Engine 2 is our tanker. It has a capacity to carry 4 personnel when responding. It carries a portable pond that can hold 3000 gal of water. With dump chutes on left right and rear, within in seconds E2 can dump 2500 gal of water into the portable pond for use while it returns to a water source to refill. It is also equipped with two 250' sections of 1 3/4" pre connected attack lines so it can be used to fight fire directly with firefighters on hose lines although that is not its intended use. The tanker has an express purpose of shuttling water to the fire scene to enable fire suppression activities. When all our engines arrive at the scene of a fire, we have 6,000 gallons of water to use. This may sound like a lot of water, and it is, but it goes fast if you are aggressively fighting a fire. The attack pumpers can put out as much as 1,500 Gallons per minute. At that rate that, 6,000 gals will be gone in just 4 minutes. However, the usual situation calls for only 200 or 300 gallons per minute, so the tanker water lasts for quite awhile. Engine 2 responds on all automatic mutual aid calls to the Town of Wilton.

The Old Mack was the first fire engine purchase by the fledgling Weston Volunteer Fire Department and until the mid '50s was the only fire engine in town. It was purchased with a loan cosigned by the members of the department. The cost? About $3,500 before add-ons such as hoses and nozzles. Although semi-retired in the early '60s when the town bought two modern fire engines, it saw action in 1963 when the original Hurlbutt Elementary School burned, and even up through the late '70s would occasionally be put into service when another unit was down for repairs. In the late '70s and early '80s it was winning trophies with the department's muster team. Although now fully retired, it remains a functional fire engine.
