[quote name='mmwolf65' post='150848' date='Sep 24 2007, 12:54 ']Great pix! Anyone have an idea of the numbering system used? This is what I can decipher:
45xxx Special units such as armored vehicles
49xxx Large ESU trucks
52xxx Cars
53xxx ESU small trucks
54xxx Tow and Flatbed trucks
56xxx CFR trucks at airports[/quote]
The first 4 numbers are the vehicle ID, the 5th number is the # of vehicles to have had that number. The numbers refer to the type of vehicle not necessarily the use
51xx and 52xx are cars (mostly marked but some unmarked - most unmarked start with a "0" and have a 3 digit #)
53xx are vans, suvs, small esu trucks etc...
54xx are wreckers
49xx - created for the larger ESU trucks - orginally had diffrent #'s - the one at JFK has 1012 for a PO that died on 9/11 - his shield #
45xx - created for specilized vehicles, incl armored vehicles
56xx/57xx are ARFF/fire vehicles
5800 and 5801 are ambulances at JFK
anything with an "S" prefix was purchased or obtained in reference to 9/11
