The Harbor PD fire boats are (or were) Marine 1, Marine 2, etc....

Hi, anybody know if Heartland  (El Cajon) Fire still have the county Type 3 Engine?

They cover most all of unincorporated County Areas of La Mesa and El Cajon, Lakeside covers what is left of unincorporated El Cajon.

There is a video up on YouTube from this AM showing Light Force 11 responding with new Truck 11

Additional info appears Escondido switched to new numbers at 10:00am, a bunch of tests on CAD (PulsePoint) starting at 10:00, four digit before that.

On PulsePoint Escondido is showing 3 digit numbers, E131, T131, E137 and so on, noticed still 4 digit still on agencies dispatched by North County, also SMFD new engine labeled E141 in photos, my guess they rest of North County changing soon.

Miami-dade Fire Rescue is it's home

I believe the E-1 built Rescue is now Light & Air 7685 out of "15's", not sure where the Ferrara built Rescue is and it's status, RE12, R3 and the Trucks seem to be holding the rescue ball in the Zone.

Truck 7675 is San Miguel ' s FPD Truck Co. 

There is a video on U-Tube mostly of the radio traffic of the incident, it does show Video  from a local new chopper that keeps repeating, at one point you see a bunch of folks scramble due to a security fence following down during the incident.

Hi, when the present day Truck 6 went into service El Cajon advertised it as a combo Heavy Rescue and Ladder Company and it had a bunch of features to support that role. Is Truck 6 still equipped with rescue gear beyond standard California style Truck Companies and considered a heavy rescue or did they have to lighten up on the equipment do to the weight issues.

In late 70's into early 80's in San Diego County almost every dept except San Diego City and Military were using 4 digit system grouped by Zone, Not sure with if it was 1979 or 1980 Zone 4 (Heartland) chiefs decided to go to single and 2 digit station number system which stands today, they still use 4 digit for some staff and chiefs.  I hear San Miguel will go back to Heartland dispatch and take up their old numbers: 14, 15, 16, 18, 19, 21, 22 and 23

Thank You

Silly auto correct San Miguel not San Manual 

E0001 do you know if Heartland CAD (pulse) is behind the times or why they still listing San Manual units as 4 digit?

I have noticed that CalFire/Ramona FD is back to using two digit unit numbers (80, 81, 82) is this a new trend for all San Diego CalFire Schedule A stations?

Rural Metro switched back to Lime Green couple years ago.....There a couple photos of new to Arizona RM engines on facebook...PhxFirePics Photography page, one is a E-one built rig and the Pierce one

Got this one off the RM Facebook page

I wonder if Heartland and Cities involved  are getting volume deal from Pierce for the standard engines, With 4 now in place, I wonder also if they might be replacing E13, E210, And possibly E7 and E9 in near future which would make a deal like that work

Does anyone no if Engines 2203 and 2205 are adaptive response, off time fill, or training crews, seen both responding in Mesa.

They changed to USAR4 when new pierce Heavy rescue similar to USAR41 went into service. As far as certification I suspect  their role has actually increased to higher certification

Per the San Diego Fire Rescue web site as of today the City type 3's are 10, 14, 24, 29, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38, 40, and 43. They also have at least one OES type 3. The two remaining 6×6 monsters are classed type 3 by SFFRD. Also there is a post that says that Br33 going to be stationed in san Pasqual Valley starting July 1st and the OES T3 will go to 33's.
