The Taylorville Fire Department is enjoying a new Pierce Tanker for their department.  The truck carries 2,000 gallons of water and is used in rural areas that don’t have access to hydrants.  Firefighters will be completing training on the new truck over the next few weeks and loading it with equipment.  The tanker was purchased by the Taylorville Fire Protection District and is leased to the City of Taylorville Fire Department.
