These have been at the shops for almost a year. New style light bar front and white pimple like LED lights rear and side front. New tillers have the same lights. New Quints have a 2000Gpm pumps with 500 HP motors. E 111 is due for one of the engines and rumor is Q 126 will receive a new Quint with ST82 receiveing 126's old Quint.

LAFD did use a Anaheim rearmount quint for a 90 day trial. As Lightforce 73. And again used a LaCo Tillered quint for a 90 day trial as Lightforce 58. Back in the 50 or 60's LAFD bought a Seagrave midmount but..sold it after awhile and bought a tiller to replace this truck.

Why did Phoenix stop using tillers? And go to all rearmounts. Thanks..

While at Fire House World in SD. KME told me they are bidding on Truck Co.

Back in the 80's. LACo used rearmount tower ladders. They nicked named them the crain as they are so large. Now county is all tillers with the exception of a few rearmount quints. Even the tillers are quints. San Deigo only has one tiller.

Yes, This was an old Pheonix rear mount. When sold it was convereted to a water tender. When Pheonix took over fire protection i don't remember the town's name this is how she returned..

It's a great event. I will be doing CFR for the event. Bring the kids!
