Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) Yep, It's one of the Kenworth/Pierce's 1 of 3 that were bought for spare rigs, that's why they were built on commercial chassis's the other 2 spares are 1997 & 1999 Quantum's that will be disposed of when the new engines arrive in 8 to 9 months E252 is suppose to be getting 1 of the new engines and their 2002 Quantum will become a spare Edited February 17, 2016 by GilbertFIRE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2016 Do you know why Queen Creek's Quantum (the old 412) is at a Gilbert Station? Storage? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2016 (edited) Lack of space with R411 E411 BC411 (WT411 it was moved to 412's) E419 (old E412) when they are not using it , they have been storing it at 255's, When they get new station 411 built, It will have 4 Bays (1 separate Bay for the BC), they will store it there & AMR 411 will move there. Suppose to break ground in June /July & then start construction on 413's SE corner of Queen Creek Rd & Sossaman. In 2 years they will be getting Ladder Tower (L411) & another Impel PUC engine (E413) andl hire 13 FF's for station for 413's Edited February 18, 2016 by GilbertFIRE RFRD likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
