here are a few pics from when we were leaving for a call(I was a \"ride-a-long: not a full FF yet )

Bunker Gear

The Chief...

The Ladder Truck...

And The drivers seat. One thing to note is the whole time I was picking around the ladder, I could not find a siren button anywhere, and I found the light button, but no sirens?


I was in this truck(Command Post)

Our hardcore Board for vehicle locations... also known as whiteboard, with our hardcore paper rescues, and other makeshift trucks, amde by hand... better than yours, ours have love

The Drivers Seat/Veiw from behind

I rode in the back

We were the last to leave, as we needed more time...(not my fault I was the first one ready; I was already in the apparatus bay:P)
So here is the other pumper leaving as I seen it



Anymore questions, or if you want more( I took 300 pictures) ask me via PM and I can help...
PS I was looking and all the pictures some have times, some don't and sometimes the times are screwy, nvm that, they are just because the camera was confused... I don't know, need to take that setting off it now.

[Newfoundking]

I have a question... what are those pictures of, like they dont appear to be in america

Secondly, on my pictures, In Response to tucker, I almost had a few good pics of those trucks on the way to school, there was a house fire, 2 stations went by, but only got them on my phone, and I am not paying 5 dollars to show them too you wait a tad, and I might get them off my phone for you

Bernt will have a better answer since he took those, but all throughout Europe hobbyists have special events where they show off replica US police cars and uniforms. Some are very accurate, some... not so much. If you remember, not to long ago there was a big fuss by a member of this board who swore that LAPD had a smart car after seeing pics of one at one of these European events. Those pics, judging by the plates and signs, appear to have been taken in Eindhoven, NL

[Hoppah]

They're taken in the Netherlands.
Not sure what event, but if you look at the blue banner it says 'politievoertuigen.nl', what is Dutch.

@ newfoundking:
Great pics. Never seen these kind of trucks in real life, I can't imagine how big they are. Cool.

I was in that arguement I think... I knew it wasnt LAPD for 3 reasons 1 NO SMART CARS! 2 European plates 3 Uniforms

Well, wow Hoppah Likes my pictures... I'm flattered
Well the tallest for sure was the tower, only two station are tall enought to hold it, thats the new one (st1) and the oldest one (West), the rest the doors don't open high enough.

And well, Next time I'm out to any of the stations, I'll get some pictures of these trucks, maybe some with lights on, and definitely some more of the tower, plus I must show you the metro bus the #2 Station houses... no lights even, the emergency response bus is kept at the metrobus station I'm confused by it, I'll drop in there Sunday (OOT all weekend) and get some nice pictures of everything I can

I'm not a personal fan of "through window" shots, but there pretty good...I don't like the ambulance though...reminds me to much of a hearse.

[aleksanderwoods]

Its just a few ambulance thats looks like a hearse.. Most of them are Red Cross ambulance.

I see it...its above the Captain seat, right on the Control panel on the roof.

Alot tend to be below, but some above.
