Eagle Hose Company No. 4 of Keyport, NJ still operates a 1990 Seagrave 1250-GPM and 500-gallon water tank pumper as Engine 96 (or Monmouth County numbering system Engine 22-76). This pumper is currently in the process of being replaced by a new custom built Emergency-One pumper. Throughout the Bayshore, this pumper is a legend having recently been first due at a local fire in Keyport.
