PALM BEACH COUNTY FIRE RESCUE

AIR / LIGHT UNIT

Does anyone have specs on this unit?  What station is it assigned to?

[Guest]

Wing1223, if you get a chance, and you're interested, swing by Palm Beach County Station 32 on Lake Worth Road.  They've got a brand new Sutphen engine, a fairly new 4-door Int'l/Horton rescue and a brand new Int'l chassis under  one of the old brush bodies.  Plus, they're in a big new 2-story station.

Mark, where is the new Station 32?  Is their Sutphen a 2012?  Any idea of the GPM/GWT specs? What else is new in PBCFR fleet? I'll be down in March and working on my "shooting list" now.  Thanks.

Does anyone have apparatus pics from Fire Rescue East?

The new station 32 is at the same location as the old one - Lake Worth Road a mile or two east of the Turnpike.  The engine is a 2012 Sutphen 1250/750/30F pumper.  The brush truck there is a 2012 International with an older body on it, the rescue is about a 2010 Int'l 4-door/Horton.  There are some new brush trucks on Ford F 4x4 chassis.  One is at station 16 on Military Trail in Jupiter.  I don't know where others might be.  Station 72, 73, and 74 in Pahokee, Belle Glade and South Bay respectively all have newer rigs and brand new stations.  

 

Station 57 on Lyons Road in Boca Raton has a pretty new Sutphen platform like the slightly older one at Station 29 in Royal Palm Beach.  

 

Other than that, I know there are some similar newer rigs taken in over the last couple years but I couldn't tell you where.  I hope to update my photo files when I'm there in April.

Any idea where this is now?

[Guest]

Rigs at the Daytona 500.  Not good shots had to get them where they sat. seen about 4 or 5 Pierce Demo Engines.

[Guest]

Tillerman, still at Reedy Creek. I don't think they will be letting this go anytime soon.

Any idea where this is now?

Last I knew, it was stored at their repair shops as a spare rig, or if needed, a crew would go pick it up there.  That was last year.  It may be assigned at one of the stations now too, I think I have a photo of this truck w/ 4 different rig numbers on it.

ENGINE 21  PALM CITY

[MFD76]

Any idea what the pump controls? Doesn't look like there are any preconnects or fly pipe. I figured it might have a red line booster. Also just in pure fun, one would think the happiest place on earth would have RED fire apparatus or at least at this point returned to RED. Good thing Orlando is Black over Red, we wouldn't want to give travelers from around the world the wrong impression. Just my own fun thoughts. I have always like this machine very unique and useful. Thanks for posting.
