San Diego Fire-Rescue New Pierce

Howdy folks!

 

SDFR has a new Pierce Pumper for Engine 3 (In Little Italy for those who live in SD)

Nice looking rig.

If you notice the new engine has a newer Model Whelen Lightbar instead of the Whelen Delta Lightbar.

Thanks, nice rig.  Glad SDFR is going to the clear lenses LED intersection-clearing code light, that flashes alternating red and white (a good attention getter).   I am surprised more departments do not use this combo red/white colors.

I’ve always wondered the same thing.  LAFD  led light bar looks like a solid red bar from a distance and when you get up close you notice the flash pattern. The last 2 batches of American Lafrance  ladder trucks had the white lights in the light bar but that was it.

SDFR added 2 more Pierce engines similar to E3.

Engine 13 (La Jolla) & Engine 9 (La Jolla/Sorrento Valley)
