Posted August 2, 2017 Howdy folks! For those who live in the North San Diego County cities. (Musta started today) Theres a new renumbering system for all FD units. Today I saw Oceanside Engine 213 (Formerly E2113) And Rescue Ambulance 211 (Formerly Medic 2191) on a medical call Don't know why the change. Thoughts anyone?

Posted August 2, 2017 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.

Posted August 2, 2017 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2017 Not sure exactly how they're running it but in the Phoenix Metro area, all agencies are allocated numbers (Phoenix 1-99/900s, Mesa 200-229, Superstition 260's, Gilbert 250's, etc) which works great in our auto aid system. I go back to the Central Valley and see 3 "E1", L1 and T1 on a fire, seems like it would be confusing who's who. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2017 Verdugo Fire has a very excellent numbering system which works well for them such as Burbank being in the Teens and Alhambra being in the 70's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
