Interesting that not only are they not Arrow XTs, but they're not even the current generation Saber.

I was in the Vancouver, WA area last week on business.  Before departing the area, I found a couple apparatus at a Clark County Fire & Rescue fire station finishing up some hose testing.  I was able to get pictures of this 1999 Pierce Saber before the crew left to return to their own station.

When they dispatched the jumper on the bridge, one crew member grabbed a bike and pedaled over to the waterfront, where the PFD keeps some personal watercraft (e.g. Jet Ski's).

 

Three other crew members (Truck 1, maybe?) jumped in this Kawasaki Mule (unknown what it's exact designation is) and headed across the street to get the watercraft.

Grabbed a bike and pedaled???  That is definitely an unconventional response!

The Rosenbauer dealership in Spokane, WA has provided the western side of the state with a view of a 2016 109' Vipor aerial demonstrator.  It's on display in the back lot of the Eastside Fire & Rescue HQ building near downtown Issaquah.

Thanks Bob for the excellent pictures.  Glad to see you posting again.  Do you have a current picture of Seattle engine 2 and 6??

[rlukas1]

Thank you Sir, it's good to be back in the swing again.  Here is a pic of E6 that is about a year old, and still assigned to the same rig, a 2007 E\-One Cyclone II with a 1500 GPM pump and 500 gallon water tank.
