Quote:Ok I know I probably have not seen the answer to this question yet, just started reading the thread, How does the Tillered Quint work?
It is really no different than a quint that is commonly used throughout the US. It has a pump, tank, hose and ladders. Only difference is that it has 2 steering wheels and bends in the middle.

I am sure it has been covered in this topic somewhere but I will be darned if I can find it, what exactly is a Light Force unit and what is it's function? Here on the right coast we don't have such a designation... does it work like the FDNY Fast Trucks (basically RIT assigned Truck Company)??

In short, a light force is a truck and a engine. They always respond together and considered one company. That way when the arrive on scene, they can be used as a truck or engine.

For all you keeping track of rig assigned to which stations, effective 4/15/15, Quint 86 has moved to Station 64, becoming Q-64. To make room for them, they moved E-264 to Station 86, becoming E-286. Reason you might ask? Station 86 can't handle a Tillered Quint. Its not deep enough.

Quint 64.
Old Quint 86 the straight stick KME is slated to get bumped down unknown assignment at this time. The department also orderd a new straight KME Rear mount to replace Quint 162.

What is THAT between the headlights? I thought LACo Fire was the reason KME kept the square grille?
