Chicago (and a lot of surrounding agencies) run red and green lights. The green lights, I believe, were inspired by boating MANY years back then it became tradition

Hartson's! That's a name I haven't heard in YEARS! I remember the ambulance "station" on I-8 between El Cajon and La Mesa. As a kid I remember listening to El Cajon FD pre-Heartland days on a rotary tunable Radio Shack radio I had. The El Cajon medic was "4391" and the chiefs/staff using 43xx but everything else was Engine/Truck - Back in the ALF days. Then at some point the Ford C-Series Engine 6 became Rescue 6 ... Ah the good ol' days when you could listen to traffic on a tunable radio

Maybe those are from National City and Chula Vista?

I was watching the live feed from somewhere (KTLA or ABC I think) and after the news hits the were still playing video from the helicopter. At one point it zoomed in on the front of Truck 9 and it looked like windows had been blown in on the passenger side and the roof of the cab was definitely scorched.

No more lime green eh? (In all fairness it was 30 years ago when I lived in Encinitas)

Looks like it was during training too https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/two-firefighters-injured-in-training-exercise/509-434e4e59-254f-4b73-a058-fadbcae31b88

Well that's a real bummer. I enjoyed that site over the years for not only the apparatus photos but the wide range of topics discussed

I was there a few days ago and it was up

Fumarin started following YNGFire closed

Without knowing the specifics I would guess there was a need to push debris out of the way? Mulch fire? Junkyard?

No way this end up well for either side How sad

https://www.nbcsandiego.com/on-air/as-seen-on/Chula-Vista-Fire-Rolls-Out-Fast-Response-Truck_San-Diego-505226582.html It's pictured with what looks like equipment from 57 but it doesn't mention where it's stationed

Found this on the net. Looks like they went into service earlier in the year https://www.fire.lacounty.gov/all-hazard-incident-trailers/ https://www.farberspecialty.com/new-vehicles/emergency-response/fire-rescue-vehicle/la-county-fire-trailers

Maybe pre-positioning for the red flag warning that looks like it extends from Santa Barbara through LA? https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1yFb10tX5BPvSXtBWgOF1eZDVGE8&usp=sharing

If my memory serves, I believe it ran out of what is now Station 9 before they built the new Station 6. I also recall a Ford engine that seemed to be around forever and ran as a rescue unit for a number of years but that's probably for a different thread

El Cajon ran a fleet of ALF engines (and maybe a truck?) when I was growing up there in the 80s. Just seeing an ALF in El Cajon brings back memories
