Portland recently took delivery of a 2004 Kenworth T480 pumper with a US Fire Apparatus marine-grade aluminum body. This apparatus has a Paccar X9 450HP engine, a 1500 Hale QMax XS pump, and a 1000-gallon UPF water tanker. The new Engine 3 will replace a 28-year-old Freightliner at the Great Hill Station.
