Thats because Engine 51, ladder 46, and any other of the fire apparatus that were featured prominently in the movie weren't in service at the time. It was done that way so it wouldn't cause an uproar throughout the department that 1 specific house was the house in the movie, rather the whole department was represented.

edit: sorry for the double post, somthing got screwed up and I got a error message so I reposted.

Yes and I noticed some things are missing: The deck gun and hoses inside those two boxes in the middle. I can fix it, if you want?

if you want the deck gun usable then you have to make it as a separate model. and the middle boxes do have hoses, but the poly count was getting to high so it is just a basic box to be skinned. because you cant see the detail that close anyway, its where you can skimp so the game doesn't crash.
