Portsmouth purchased this 1994 IHC S-4900/Central States/RK to be used as Engine 1. This unusual apparatus carried 500-gallons of water and 40-gallons of foam. The aerial was just 50-feet in length and it was rated to pump at 1250-GPM. It was later re-assigned to Engine 3 and Engine 7 before being retired.
