$700k each for pumpers?  Seems legit...
by the time you get done equiping them if they purchase any small stuff for them and radios ect that price is about right for an arrow xt

Ok! Folks, I have started a slow and daunting task of digitizing my prints.  Some go back as far as the early '80s.  If there is no info with the picture, that means I have no info for it.  Any info would be greatly appreciated.  This is going to be a slow going project, that covers this thread, as well as the LACoFD and LAFD threads. 

 

First up is some vintage Vernon FD rigs.

 

Vernon is a 4 House Department SE of Downtown LA.  The city's motto is "Exclusively Industrial", as they have just a handful of full time residents.
