    U251 is loaded with bottled water or might be using one of the new braun northwest ambo's. Any info  on E841, E842 & E843  Pierce  Pucs

    There is a U251, CV251, RH251, & R251 all in service (besides the Engine, Ladder, and BC). Not sure what the RH is running out of. 

    Pierce PUCs coming from Miami Dade. Unknown ETA to delivery. Haven't been by AMR Station 1 in awhile and not sure if RM set up a new fleet location somewhere. 


  2. What is Gilbert running as their RH251 truck? It was requested tonight to Chandler's debris fire in the county island. Command asked for air conditioning. I thought RH264 was the only cooling bus...


  3. Gilbert Fire & Rescue held a ceremony to welcome their new Pierce Quantum. It was interesting that new the Pierce wasn't really set up at all. The old Pierce seemed empty. and the crew was in service running out of the reserve Pierce Kenworth. They had 3 Engine 256s at the station.

    tks for the info   L24 &L33 velocity mid mounts are in production, I assume E58's Commander should be production?

    Phoenix has 2 Velocity 95' Aerial Platforms in production. I have no information regarding that Commander. 


  5. Rural Metro Fire Department, E859 in their new-to-them Pierce Enforcer. 

     

    Rumor has it, that 3 Pierce PUCs are on their way to San Tan Valley to replace the Ferraras at E841,842,843.

  6. It's a former west valley department utility, maybe Avondale's. It's not really in service yet for automatic aid but can be used at the direction of Surprise Fire to support long incidents within the city if needed.

    Mesa's new engine no longer going to 215, going to 202. Also heard E216 and E219 will be swapping rigs with E201 and E204. 

     

    New L214 should be in service soon, I believe the bucket is going to L209. 

    Went by resource today and E215 is still labeled as 215. 


  8. Never saw this coming.. <eye roll> 

     

    none the less it will be interesting to see how this would affect the current transition. A lot of money has been dumped into the central AZ market.

    Interesting.  So I  wonder if any ships are going to continue to be automatically added to calls in Halo 151s former area or will they have to be special called?

    No more auto dispatch. Everything is back to the way it was prior to halo and will be special called.

    Does anyone know the number of fire stations the Alarm Room dispatches for  in total?  I count 122.

    Also the number of alarms processed annually?

     

     

    The Phoenix Fire Department Regional Dispatch Center dispatches for the following entities;

    PHX - NCO - ELM - SUN - DSY - GLN - TOL - AVO - GDY - SLK - GUA - TMP - CHA - SUR - BUV - TON - LAB - HRQ - GIB* - MAR - SCT - BUC

    My count of the actual number of stations is 159, with a few more coming in the near future.

    Tks for the update,  Do you know were Rural Metro's new Pierce Enforcer pumper is going ?   San Tan Valley ? East County ?   and how many are they getting   ?

     

     

    Last rumor I heard is that the enforcer is going to 859. Another new-used going west & the other headed south to Pima. 


  13. EMT Brian Lemaster, coworker, friend, brother, son, father, and fiancé,  passed away on September 21st.  His fellow co-workers and EMS community will be holding a celebration of life for Brian on Monday, September 26th at 7:30pm (1900), and at 9:00 pm (2100) there will be a balloon release. All are welcome to attend the celebration event which will be held at AMR Station 1 located at 617 W Main Street, Mesa, Arizona.

    Jobs like Brian’s as an emergency medical professional is not an easy one. It’s toll on our bodies and minds is no gentle matter. PTSD and depression are real issues, work issues.

    • New Quantum's are at 15,20,23,27,31,33,34,37,40,54,58,905,918,930 &
    •  58's get reassigned when they get the Rosenbauer Commander  correct ?
    •  Demer's rescues  are at  7,13, 42, 43, 52 have the other 5 got assigned yet ?   
    •  

    This is my list, mind you my list is comprised of trucks i've seen in person. 

    • E15 - 531037
    • E20 - 531040
    • E23 - 531038
    • E27 - 531019
    • E33 - 531018
    • E34 - 531017
    • E37 - 531029
    • E40 - 531052
    • E58 - 531020
    • E918 - 531073
    • E930 - 531039

    E905 I've seen a photo of. I can't confirm 31 or 54. 

     

    Still nothing heard about E58 getting the Rosenbauer. The guys know nothing, resource knows nothing, the BC for that area knows nothing. Everyone we've asked laughed and said no. Maybe the district is getting one and storing it? Believe the contract Laveen has with Phoenix says that Phenox will provide everything, including apparatus. 

     

    Rescues I have, 

    R3, R7, R13, R25, R43.
