While not the "traditional" colors for a fire truck, I miss all of the distinctive paint schemes used in the past. Baltimore was always my favorite with the White and Orange, but I also miss the Stars & Bars from D.C., the White/Lime with the Red stripe from Newark, the Black/Gold from Pittsburgh, and a few others. White/Red tends to get a bit boring when EVERYBODY uses it!

J,
With Newark I grew up in the time frame of Lime/White/Red and liked it but have to say that old RED was nice as well as the Lime/White and GOLDLEAF... seeing more and more old rigs... that Red Sticker Lettering looks boring!
