You are correct: the last digit tells you what type of apparatus it is.



0 - Pumper

1 - Pumper

2 - Aerial

3 - Tanker

4 - Rescue Pumper (i.e. pumper equipped with vehicle extrication tools)

5 - Rescue Quint

6 - Rescue Truck

7 - Ambulance

8 - Brush fire rig

9 - Utility vehicle



Now, if the 3rd digit is a 9, then it's some type of reserve vehicle



Examples: 2394 means it's Creve Coeur Fire District's reserve pumper with vehicle extrication tools

2597 means it's Brentwood Fire Department's reserve ambulance
