Thanks for posting the pic of Snorkel 6! Brings back good memories of seeing it in person and hearing it get dispatched over the scanner back in the day.

STLFD guys. I saw H&L 3 on the news last night at a fire. I take it that this is refurbed H&L 15. Where is it running out of? Is H&L4 still at the 36's?




St. Louis Metro - ben_mazanec - 04-07-2012

Here is H&L 3! I finally got some good shots of it! This is the refurbished H&L 15/Reserve 105. It is Stationed with Truck 36 still. H&L 4 is RUMORED to be taking over Truck 4 when we get the money for another new H&L.

I did make it to the fire. I will post some shots in the fire scene area.

Wasn't that Reserve H&L 105 that was flowing water while sitting on I-44 on the Chemisphere fire last June???



H&L 3 looks great! I still gotta call East Central and have them change our 1st Alarm commercial responses to H&L 3 from H&L 4.

Whats the point of a 2 1/2 line with a 1 3/4 fog nozzle on it?

I don't think any company in the city has a smooth bore on and of their handlines. but it is still 2 1/2 i believe. it is bigger than the 1 3/4 preconnect lines' nozzles...

Good looking rig Phil. I'm starting to like these IH, Lincoln Co Ambulance has a new one also and its sharp. I'm hearing Fenton might get an IH also? Heard anything?

I havent seen ours in person yet, just this one photo that was text to me. From the looks of it, the only thing Im not a fan of is the PowerArc lightbar.



Fenton and Valley Park had a "joint" ambulance committee. Im not sure if Fenton ordered 1 or 2, but theirs was ahead of ours on the assembly line. So I can only assume they will be taking delivery fairly soon, if not already.


St. Louis Metro - Guest - 06-19-2012

I'm not crazy about the looks of this particular Power Arc bar, but I can tell you that the one like this on Maplewood's rescue truck is BRIGHT!


St. Louis Metro - Juice - 06-19-2012

I LOVE the Powerarc bar, I personally just am not a fan of Red and Blue on fire apparatus. Not starting a dispute, just MY opinion.



Trav!
