Not yet...I'll work on that in the next couple of weeks. I'll post a few random other valley City shots this afternoon.

Just for fun I'll throw a couple of non-Phoenix rigs in here.



Chandler Engine 286 (I'm guessing it's a reserve they were running).



1995 Spartan/Saulsbury

Nice pictures, its a shame what is happening to ALF. I liked the look of the Phoenix rigs.

Am I missing something, but where are the intakes and discharges on Phoenix Quantums?

I'm not exactly sure, but I would guess that they're probably all on the Officer's side.

I neglected to mention it earlier, but many/most(?) of the Chevrolet/Marque ambulances have remounted boxes on them, circa 2003. They were originally on Ford E-450 chassis and were remounted on the new Chevy's as a cost saving measure. Here is one of them as delivered originally. It's still assigned to Rescue 29.

You are correct, they are on the officers side.

Hopefully soon. It's supposed to be lettered today, so I'll likely get over there and shoot it tomorrow or Thursday. Also, when the old Engine 191 (ALF) gets relettered for Engine 196 I'll try to get it, too.

As promised, here is the new Engine 191. Going into service on Friday the 9th of November.



2012 Spartan/Rosenbauer (Minn) 1500/500/50a/CAFS Rosenbauer S/N #13469 Peoria Veh #1725



This is the last of five identical units (2010 (E-192, E-195), 2011 (E-193, E-194), 2012 (E-191))

Engine 196 will receive E-191's 2007 ALF Eagle; 196's 2004 E\-One/Saulsbury will go into reserve and the 2002 Spartan/Saulsbury will be surplussed.

I caught a few Glendale rigs out and about today.



Here is Engine 158 running one of the several 1996-ish E\-One Hush's Glendale has in reserve. Honestly, I see more of these rigs than the frontline E\-One/Saulsbury's.

Ladder 157's 2006-ish E\-One 114' Bronto Skylift at a serious 962 (auto accident). The big ladders rarely run on these types of calls. The LT must've been O/S.

LT-152's 2009 Spartan/SVI at the same accident.

Medic 155 was there, too. No engine companies, though.

2002-ish Chevrolet C-4500/Braun (I think)

This and one other unit are joint Glendale FD/Southwest Ambulance/Midwestern University rigs that serve as jump units for paramedic students.
