I had the opprotunity to visit Clark County Station 16 yesterday.

 

Station 16 at this point and time has a engine, truck, and rescue. When they move to thier new station the Rescue is to be reassigned to Station 32 as Rescue 232.

 

Here is the Engine

Engine 16

The engine is only 8 years old but according to the Engineer it has over a 100k on it already.

Back in June I went to the open house that Clark County was having at Station 15 and it was a little crowded with rigs and the motorcycles. But I was able to get some good shots of Engine 15.

What's the story with the chevrons being painted over on the rig above? It's so odd to me to see Blue on the driver's side and Red on the officer's for lights, but we run all Red (and White) so that's a whole different story.



Love the Clark County rigs with the painted Yellow bumpers by the way.


Thanks for sharing,

If you look you can see where they just painted over the unit numbers on the rear of the rig.

Hey Trav

 

If this is the one that you are talking about it was part of the HazMat Units in the Las Vegas Valley. On the rig you will notice CBRNE which was the HazMat units out here. It stands for Chemical Biological Reactive Nuclear Explosive but a few years ago the Clark County Fire Department basically got on the bad side of a certain County Commissioner, he is now the County Commission Chairman, and he went after everything from overtime to staffing to the Hazmat and Heavy Rescue Units. The Hazmat Team which included the CBRNE Units were disbanded and the County now depends solely on the City of Las Vegas for Hazmat and Heavy Rescue Teams.

 

The unit above was at one time assigned to the Hazmat team and this is now a reserve unit so they repainted over the Chevrons. I hope this answers your questions.

 

And I love the lighting on the rigs you should see it at night. One of these days I will try and get a picture of it.

I think he's referencing where the chevrons went. They're sun faded I believe.

[nozzleman]

Your right on that Jake but part of the story is also the fact that due to a issue between one county commisioner and the department some aspects of the largest department in the state have been cut.

Was out today taking pictures of area Fire Stations and was able to get a video of Las Vegas Fire And Rescue Engine 44 as it was responding to a unknown call. I made the two stills from the video.

thank you I will add that to my information

[nozzleman]

Here is another Las Vegas Fire and Rescue Unit. It was parked outside of Station 7. I have no other information about the unit.

I was out Friday taking pictures of Stations and when I could the Rigs. I was very lucky when I got to Station 24 that the Engineer loved to show off the rigs. Hazmat 24 and the departments Hazmat Team has been mothballed for now due to politics. But the rig is ready to go if the need ever arrises.

 

Here is Hazmat 24
