Omaha, NE - Working Fire - April 26, 2014
#30
That's all...

 

I apologize for the small photos. I purchased a new SLR and am having trouble downsampling the files. 

 

Omaha is not a department that has been showcased on FirePics. Having just moved to the area, I don't know a whole lot about the department. I do know that they run from 24 stations.

 

24 engines

8 trucks (no trucks are equipped with pumps or water)

1 heavy rescue

1 air truck

1 water tender

15 medic units 

7 battalion chiefs

 

There are a bunch of brush trucks cross-staffed by the engines that they are housed with. 

 

Engines, trucks and the rescue are staffed with 4. The air truck, water tender and medics are staffed with two. 

 

Several engines on the west end of Omaha are equipped with 1000-gallon tanks, portable tanks and Newton dumps. I believe that E71, E77, E78, E63 and E56 have rigs with these features. There may be more.
