Ladder68,
The hazmat kept at EMS Station 1 is in the City of Pittsburgh colors of White with black & gold stripes. There are actually three different color rigs in the city. All units fire department related are red/white, all units ems related are orange/white, all terrorism or specialty rigs for the city are painted white with black & gold stripes.
The Hazmat is operated by EMS. It is cross staffed by Rescue 1's crew, as far as a I know. The day I took photos the driver of Rescue 1 pulled it out. The Decon Units & Foam Unit in the City are operated by the Fire crews, and are cross staffed. There is also a Pierce/LDV Command unit that is available for use by fire/ems/pd.
There are actually two station 34's. I'm not sure why they split the two units up. Truck 34's house was built rather recently, and is one of the few stations in the city that has a nice ramp for pictures.
Mike,
I'm not to sure where the Scuba unit is being kept at these days. I'm not even sure where the MCU is kept at. I have been to both EMS houses recently, and neither were at them. There are multiple units kept at the City shops, and even a small rescue that is kept at Heinz Field, so your guess is as good as mine. lol
Hope this answered some questions.
