Why aren't any of the truck's being restored?

There going faster than the TDAs

What the latest on what happening with them have any come back from the factory?

I wonder how long this contract with Pierce is or is it by order's or years?  Maybe for the next bid they should consider going with a different company

Will we see them on the streets of LA this year?

where are the station numbers put on at South Coast or LAFD shops

Is the City Short of funds

The city of Hermosa Beach has only one fire station I think it would make great sense for the county to take over. There would be more recourse's that the city doesn't have. I believe the city of San Fernando some time during the 1980s closed down there fire department and have contracted LAFD with no fire stations in the city limits of San Fernando and it's covered LA city station's 75 in Mission Hill to the west, 91 in Sylmar to the north and 98 in Pacoima to the south.

Can some pictures of it be posted

Has Truck 11s gone to the station yet

I drove by 88's yesterday and saw the first Pierce with the gray ladder numbered T11.  I didn't stop to ask any questions, but I saw it parked in the back.

that probally won't happen as seagrave has priced themselves out of the market. several departments that used to be loyal to seagrave are now going to other makers because they are to expensive

I wouldn't be surprised if Seagrave in the coming years go the way of the Do do  like American La France

Have any of the Pierce Trucks arrived at the shops?

Where is the parking at station 112 and Station 49

Back in the 1950s when alot of these station were built building code did not have parking in mind.

I know that alot of EMTs live far distances from the city and when they 3 24 hour shifts with 24 hours off between shifts if any firefighters owned RVs they could park them at the station and sleep in them so they didn't have to drive home and back the next day dose the department allow firefighters to leave there vehicles at the station when off duty or not.

Have any arrived at the shops yet i've heard that 11s 2006 ALF is now at 50s

Is the car wash by 9s still opened it looked closed last time i was by it.

I have notice that some of the older stations that are in service have very small yards on the side of them. Some are Task Force/Light Force stations like 9s, 12s, 14s, 20s, 35s, 39s 50s, 60s, 75s and 96s how can all of the staff on duty park the vehicles at the stations? Do they sometimes have to park on the streets some of the naborhoods like were 9s and 35 are not very safe for cars to be left on the streets.

I was driving to Las Vegas back in May and I saw several semi trucks with fire engines and so single frame trucks on trailers going the opposite direction not sure what department they were for or what make. Do sometimes they are trucked out?

The property belonged the DWP, and was a storage/maintenance yard for the Power side.  The neighborhood is trading a dusty lot with very large trucks coming and going, for a cleaner facility with about half the vehicle traffic.

People should stop complaining

I think the city should just go ahead with it anyway

I'm pretty sure that there alot of fire engines, ambulances and police passing by on Oxnard all the time with there sirens going

 Thanks for printing the link to the article, Casey, I have been trying to follow that story. I wonder what is it with the people who live in that neighborhood in Van Nuy's? Los Angeles had built about 19 new stations over the last approximately 10 years and I hadn't heard of any civilian complaints or threatened lawsuits with any of the other fire stations that were built.

The people who live in that residential neighborhood next to the proposed fire station are what are known a NIMBY'S which translated means Not In My Back Yard. They like to have the fire department when they need it but they don't want it nearby (within earshot). In other words they want to have their cake and eat it too.

Agreed

Is the truck already there?

Have any of the new trucks been asingned yet and in service?
