Engine 7-6

A fire truck parked outside a fire station with "West Routt Fire Protection District" signage and an American flag.

Engine 7-6 is a 2003 American LaFrance Eagle pumper built on a freightliner chassis. It is our second newest truck and is nearly 20 years old! “Six”, as it is called around the station by firefighters, carries 1,000 gallons of water, 40 gallons of class B foam, and 20 gallons of class A foam. Equipped with a 1,500 gallon per minute Hale pump, Six is a very capable pumper. A roof mounted Night Scan two stage telescoping light towers can be set up and turn the darkness of night time into day in less than a minute. The light tower can be extended to over 20 feet in the air and provide illumination 360 degrees around the truck, with six 1,500 watt hydraulic driven 120/240 volt generator. Being the second newest of all our fire apparatus, this truck is set up to handle any structure fire when it is called to service.
