Rescue 2 also responded on the box

More R2

Hmm do I detect differences between Rescue 1 and Rescue 2

Yes I do. No winch on R1

Here is R1 suppot unit. Getting a shot of this is not easy as they don;t come out and play much.

One more

OK, let me end with a pic of E 16



First Due to the [color="#ff0000"]CENSORED BY THE U. S. SECRET SERVICE[/color].

Looks like Rescue 1 stores there winch in a compartment and Rescue 2 stores there’s on the Bumper above the receiver…Rescue 1 looks to have something in or over there receiver..

Rescue 2 has DCFD above windshield

Somebody had asked me to post any other photos I had from DC on here. I don't have the time to post them on here, but they are posted on my website. Check them out.

Anyone know why the DC rescues have little to no markings on the box? From the rear of the cab to the tailboard, little to no markings, lights, reflective tape and the like.

It could be that they were spec'd and built to the current nfpa standards at the time they were created, plus the District isn't going to spend more than it is necessary. A lot of cities are like that. Money is hard to get so they get what the standards call for. Just my thoughts...

More TL 3

and the side
