Construction Update and Photos from Pierce on New Engine 473
December 18th, 2009
On Friday we received our first update and set of pictures from Pierce, the company manufacturing the replacement for Engine 473. The engine was purchased a few months ago at a final cost around half a million dollars. After going through final engineering work, the cab began in fabrication this week. In the next report the cab should finish in fabrication. The pump house and body may begin fabrication. Due to the Pierce plant holiday shutdown, the next update will be January 8th.
