The Officers and Members of the Walden Fire Dept. eagerly await the arrival of the new Ladder Truck (T-240) this week. The unit was commissioned to be built by Spartan by the commissioners of the Walden Fire District well over a year ago.

The new Ladder Truck is scheduled to be delivered on Friday (7/14/17) and the training will beginning that same weekend. After a few weeks of training and adjustments the New Ladder Truck should be placed in service.

The Truck will be replacing the current Ladder truck which went into service in 1997. The NFPA recommends that Fire Fighting apparatus be "changed out" every 20 years. This will help ensure that the Department has the proper apparatus in service to meet the needs of properly protecting the District.
