Kansas City area fire apparatus

Paola, Kansas Fire Department 
Engine 3

#HS4754
Sutphen Sheild
1250/750 
Note: Purchased as Demo
 

 

What does the 12/2009 mean, December 2009 build date?

 

 

 

 

Another note, Belton, MO is currently specing two pumpers. Preliminary reports appear the department will be returning to RED from the current lemon-yellow color scheme. If this change occurs this would leave Central Jackson County, Lee's Summit, and Kearney as the only three metro departments still purchasing yellow. At one time in the Kansas City metro over twelve departments used lime-green or yellow. 

 

I, for one, am sad to see the Lime-Yellow going away, I cannot imagine 12+ departments, man, talk about a sight!

 

Trav!
