GREAT PICTURES Transverse! That station is looking fantastic - and the Ladder was well overdue.

Great Pictures.



One queston. How are they supposed to cross the sidewalk to respond on a call? The sidewalk looks like it's at quite an angle.

Speed is the key.

Hah. For those who are familiar with Seattle, that HAS to be the case in Queen Anne <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />



As far as the new HQ, I'm assuming they will try to horizontal-ize the sidewalk/entrance area as much as possible without being drastic. Just a guess though.

Station 10 looks HUGE. Interesting location at the bottom of a pretty steep hill

[Bryce]

The new Station 10 will also house the Fire Alarm Center and the City EOC. That's why it's so huge.

great pics! I really like those new E-Ones...although the rear compartment area is pretty low (which is sorta odd).

I believe - Engines: 25, 38, 11, 33 & 1 other maybe E8 ????

Engine 17 is the other Seattle Engine Company with a new E\-One.

Has Crimson delivered the new Rear-Mount Aerials? Aren't those on order?

There's been a rear-mount just sitting along the fence line out behind the department shops for about two or three weeks now and I've been thinking that it's been displaced by a new delivery. That's the best I can do, anybody have anything more substantial?

I have no photos of it, but I did hear when I was down there in the summer - that it was slated to go into service as Ladder 8 in Ballard.
