Breda, IA (March 2, 2023) – The well-known saying ‘third time’s a charm’ holds true for the Enfield Fire Company (EFC) in Ithaca, New York. The upstate-New York fire department recently accepted delivery of its third apparatus built by Iowa-based manufacturer Toyne, Inc., further bolstering its emergency response capabilities.

An integral part of Tompkins County, the Enfield Fire Company is a one-station volunteer fire department with more than 50 members that provides fire and emergency response efforts.

EFC’s latest rig is a bolted painted stainless steel Toyne Pumper that was fitted with a Spartan Gladiator LFD with 10″ raised roof chassis. Powering the apparatus is a Cummins ISX15 565 HP engine and an Allison 4000 EVS transmission.

In addition, Enfield’s new pumper is equipped with

  • UPF 1000 Gallon Tank
  • Hale Qmax 1750 K Gearbox Pump
