The quitter pants are outfitted with the Petzl EXO. I think it is the "Cadillac" of escape systems.

Thanx! The pants looked similar to our new spec's (MP w/intergrated harness & "Bag-pocket" and CMC pompier hook) but we went w/ different dvice (didn't like the Exo)

gileng4: What sort of complaints have you heard? I know they weren't too keen on dennis rubins 2000gpm pump being on there.

There are some electrical issues, E-3 and E-12 wagon were in service and then brokedown, not much room for the officer, the 2000 gpm single stage pump and mostly the size too big to get in some alleys.
Does anybody have any interior shots, of the new pierces?

Wow, it appears the shops took a razor scrapper to remove the lettering and door seal! Pure nonsense!

A razor would have been nice. It looked like they were using a sharpened stick or a broken bat from nat's park.

I worked a trade last night at E19 and was able to get a few shots of the new wagon and its interior. E19 turns 100 years old today, and a fitting celebration is scheduled for the company members and the neighborhood she protects (which happens to be my neighborhood).

Not the best quality of photos because of the lights in the firehouse and darkness outside.

Roy, what size are the intakes? They look small than a 6 inch size.
