Emergency! Station 51 (LA County Fire Station 127) visited in 1994

[@justindelaney9987]

Few years ago I worked across the street from the station at the oil refinery there. I used to pass the station daily. As a HUGE fan of the show as a kid I told everyone I could about seeing the station in person.

[@BrianKliewer]

It's really cool to see it's still there and not changed much since the show aired. We used to watch it every Saturday night.

[@sherrigaskin5656]

I watched that show every Saturday night. Loved it.

[@mrkhubrt]

I appreciate the video. I watched Emergency when it first ran in the 70's. Was always one of my favorite shows. It is cool that people are still interested in the show today and even more cool that a lot of the stuff used in the show is still available to be seen. Not many shows made today will have touchable evidence of their existance 50 years from now...

[@michaels1706]

Wow, that brings back a lot of memories as my dad worked at that station when I was growing up in the 70s.

[@michaellomeli8096]

I Was Work Right next To The Fire Station. But A Year Later in 1995. It Was A Golf Store At The Time. Thanks For Posting This Great Video.

[@douglasnorby4006]

Still there?

[@bmasters1981]

Love the historical marker/plaque on the front in remembrance of Robert A. Cinader, EP of Emergency!; he was big in why this station 127 (which was 51 on Emergency!) is remembered as it is today.

[@davidmack4495]

grew up watching the show..Always wanted to work for lacofd, but hired elsewhere.. I should visit the station.. it's 50 miles away and the reason I chose my career..Thanks for the video..

[@davidcarroll8735]

Great Video! That trip is on my bucket list as well.

[@calvinvance3399]

The station looks the same as it did when they filmed EMERGENCY!

[@vernonjohnsonjr7389]

I was born in 1972 the same year the tv show emergency came on and although I don't remember watching it during its run from 72 to 77 I do remember the last episodes and reruns

[@robnorwood3591]

I lived about a mile and a half north of the station, on the same street (223rd Street) at the time it was filmed. A mile south of the fire station on 223rd Street was the famous Lions Dragstrip, which was operating at the time of filming too. It's where they filmed the Munster's drag racing episode in the 60's. The dragstrip closed by the city in 1972. They claimed it was because of the noise. But they actually wanted the land to use as ship container storage for the port of Los Angeles.

Station is looking good for just a couple months after the Northridge Earthquake. I was a little teenager in 1994 and living in Norwalk at the time, just 14 miles from station 127. I wish I knew about it's location at the time, I no doubt would have checked it out. I was a fan of the fire department when I grew up, I always checked out Norwalk 20, Norwalk 115, Bellflower 98, Whittier 96, La Mirada 49, along with Downey and Santa Fe Springs. Heck in 1994 I was watching Emergency, Dragnet, Adam-12, Chips and Hunter. BTW THANKS for tossing this video on youtube :)

[@jamesmusselman1655]

Finally got a microwave and dishwasher. Awesome. Thanks for sharing.

[@joebanville7510]

The actual LAco Station 51 is at Universal Studios. As kind of a tribute to the show

[@brianstoneburner1193]

Watching it now on FETV. Amazing how back in the day no neck collars...51 start a i.v.d5w tko and transport soon as possible

[@evankeal]

That light bar on the squad looks like the same one from the 70s.

[@GadgetFF]

I think it’s the same

[@douglasnorby4006]

Remember being there when old truck 127 was first out used in show..

[@EricWhiteTheGamer]

Not sure what the unit was next to the a tower but now they run a trailer truck and a foam unit out of the station as of 2018 or 2019 when I was there.

[@jeffskene42]

looks like they still had the breathing aparatus in the sleeping dorm in case of chem incidents smaller ones for when there was an issue at the chem plant station 10 also had them as a means of escape to the vehicles during a chorine leak...the platform at 127s was likly the last platform in LA county as they went to tractor ladders and then tractor quints and straight Quints

[@shaneharrisnj3484]

Now both the Seagrave Pump and the Van Pelt/ LTI ladder are retired!

[@FredChristianImpact]

Very Nice I Am Not A Firefighter but respect what they do ....One day I hope to Visit The Station. Plus see the museum where Squad 51 and Both Engine 51's Crown and Ward LaFrance are at .Thank You For Sharing and Your Service God Bless

[@robertyoung3992]

the LA County Fire Museum in Bellflower, CA

[@douglasnorby4006]

Have an online gift shop..

[@andyg.1871]

That Orange Pickup Truck parked out back was also there when the show was filming in the 1970s! There are some shots of it in some episodes. Must be one of the Firefighters who works there.

[@paulndaoc]

I can see where the county had to raise the roof over the apparatus floor in order to accommodate the larger apparatus that is used now.

[@force311999]

so cool the kitchen was still the same in 94 as it was on the show hope it is preserved as historical and not remodeled

[@TN_fire_photographer]

The guy in the pink shirt, what FL dept did he work with? He looks very familiar.

[@douglasnorby8385]

Saw it years ago after squad was in Morro bay for fireman's Muster.

[@douglasnorby4006]

Is Cormier Chevrolet still there?

[@cleong1218]

What took so long guys?

[@chuck1car258]

It took finishing up my 30 year career and retiring last year. Finally got time to learn the internet and youtube! LOL Thanks for watching!

[@impossibledrms]

It's ok. It's like an interim video, 1970s, 1990s, 2020s.

[@andyhamilton8940]

Ringers Lacate and D5W....transport as soon as possible 51!

[@alexandermakrianis]

That tower ladder looks nearly identical to one the my department had, ours was a 1981 LTI.

[@davidglover2023]

very cool, who knew?

[@douglasnorby4006]

The old chalkboard..

[@impossibledrms]

Better late than never.

[@hughstephenson2957]

The only "actors" were Gage and his partner.. the rest were actual firefighters and consultants..

[@timfremstad3434]

No, Capt. Stanley, Kelly , And Marco Lopez were actors.... Capt. Hammer at the start of the series and Mike Stoker were real firemen

[@apolloniaaskew9487]

@@timfremstad3434 The off duty firemen were hired as extras.

[@ameliadiaz8040]

Quisiera saber por qué no añadir un huerto casero a esta icónica estación bomberil, así sus tripulantes ahorrarán mucho dinero en compras de súpermercado en vegetales y frutas.
