Engines 22 and 23 dispatched class one to 672 Main Street in front of Boyers Market in Lykens for a tractor trailer on fire. The address given was based on information from the 911 call. Engine 22 went enroute with 5, Engine 23 with 4, Truck 22 with 4, Utility 22 with 1 and Utility 23 with 2. Captain 21 marked up on radio that he was on scene and that the fire was about a half mile East of Lykens on Route 209. Responding units continued up Main street until they arrived on the scene of the trailer fire. The actual location was a 23-5 box in Wiconisco Township. Crews from both Engines pulled a hand line and proceeded to attack the fire. Command 22 requested a Tanker be added to the box. Not sure if Tanker 23 had a crew so Tanker 24 was dispatched class one. Both Tankers did respond, 23 with 1 and 24 with 5. Tanker 23 set up on the west side of the incident and fed Engine 23 and Tanker 24 staged on the East side. Bulk of the fire was knocked in a short time and overhaul began with control being marked. Crews rotated out and Tanker 24's crew went in to perform overhaul. Wiconisco PD was also on scene. After overhaul and wetting down of the remains of the trailer Tanker 24 was released. Crews continued with cleanup until released by Command.
