Here is another photo of a squad unit running out of sta.1 in August of 1986.Not sure what there were called during this era.

They responded as Rescues 1, 2, 8, 9, and 15.

Atlanta Crash Engine 35, 1972 American LaFrance 1000/1000, ALF #C-13-3305.

This rig also carried 100 gallons of foam and was later known as Yellow 6.

Atlanta Engine 5, 1973 Hendrickson/Pirsch 1000/???/54-foot TeleSqurt.

Like most Atlanta rigs since the 1970's, this one carried 500 gallons. About the only exceptions are the 1972 ALF 1000/1000/100F already shown by Steve, the twin 1976 Mack CF 1000/1000/100F pumpers of Engines 1 and 4, and the 1982 Mack CF 1000/1000/100F that ran as Yellow 5.
