Ted, you are indeed correct. As an AVID Lawrence Fire listener (1 scanner dedicated just to them), apparatus radio designation are still 30's for the engines, 40s for the 2 ladders and 85 for the rescue. Every once in a while youll hear them say just "engine 5" or "ladder 5", but 95% of the time, the old school radio designations are still active.
