Assuming that the new Arlington Quint can fit in any of the 3 fire stations (which might be a stretch) -
1. The new Quint could replace Ladder 2 - this will cause very minor changes since Ladder 2 is rarely used. AFD could use the Quint as the 2nd rig on any highrise box. 2. The new Quint could replace Ladder 1 - this would cause very minor changes. 3. The new Quint could replace Engine 3 at Park Circle. This would increase the regularly running aerial count from 1 to 2 - but all runs from Park Circle are downhill - which might be fun for a big Quint in the winter. 4. The new Quint could replace Engine 2 - this would put in service rigs at : 2 pumps (E1 & E3) - 1 ladder (L1) - 1 quint. An overriding factor might be - what is the water pressure in the hydrants? If you lay a 4 inch feeder uphill from a hydrant - does a pumper need to pump the hydrant? 5. The new Quint could replace Engine 1. This would put 2 big rigs in Arlington Center - they might not both fit in the station - and they run many medical calls. 6.
