Cincinnati Fire Department

[Skyefire]

Hello, there. New member here and I've got a bunch of pictures from Cincinnati Fire Department. While I technically live in a suburb of Cincinnati, I'm in Cincinnati a lot (almost every day I go out). Cincinnati Fire Department was the first professional fire department in the country. The department has 26 stations, 27 engines, 12 ladder trucks, 12 medics, 2 heavy rescues, 1 HazMat truck, 1 EOD/Bomb Squad truck plus containment truck, 1 ARFF crash truck (plus one spare), 2 Mass Casualty Trucks, 1 fire boat, 3 zodiac boats, 3 foam trucks, 1 trench trailer, 1 water tanker, 1 mobile command truck, 4 district chiefs, 3 EMS Supervisors (called ALS), and 1 safety officer.

First up in my photo collection is Engine 3, a 2015 Rosenbauer Commander. 3s are quartered in Downtown Cincinnati and are first due at Great American Ballpark as well as the main library, courthouse, jail, and Hard Rock Casino.

Cincinnati Engine 5, a 2019 E\-One. Engine 5 coverers parts of the Over-the-Rhine and Mt. Auburn neighborhoods. When available 5 will respond to any working structure fires in Downtown Cincinnati at third due engine.

Here's a couple more photos of Engine 5. I'm not sure why but 5s always keep the tarp off of their apparatus. They did it with their last apparatus and they're doing it with this one. Here's also a zoom in on the company logo.

Cincinnati Engine 9. Located in the North Avondale neighborhood, they're first due in most of North Avondale and Bond Hill as well as Xavier University. Their apparatus is a 2011 Spartan Rosenbauer.
