LACoFD Quint 127 is toned out to an auto accident

[@nzfirephotography]

Nice this is Station 51 uses for the 1970s Show Emergency!

[@Mile54Productions]

That Ford beside it is pretty sweet, nice catch!

[@FL92002]

Thanks! I looked at the build date; the truck itself is a 1979 Ford, the Chassis is a 1980 Pierce.

[@kevinswinyer3176]

That Station is in Carsonville, California, LA County. Station 127 is the same Fire Station of the 70's TV Show Emergency. Engine 51 sat where the Quint pulled out of, and Squad 51 was parked where the Ford Foam Unit is sitting.

Carson, not Carsonville.

[@kevinswinyer3176]

@@spencerberklite5118 yes, you are correct, and I stand corrected. For some reason, I was thinking of a tiny Town in Pennsylvania, named Carsonville when I made the comment. Thanks for correcting me.

[@douglasnorby4006]

Carson..

[@douglasnorby4006]

Didn’t have the plaque when we were there

[@kevinswinyer3176]

@@douglasnorby4006 I believe the plaque was installed a short time ago.

Emergency theme music is playing I. My head as I watch this. The space looks small now given the increased size of today’s Trucks. Lastly. The neighbor buildings are close vs what we’ve always watched on TV ❤️❤️

[@leviheidle524]

Now that Ward was still a beast! I used to own one.

[@HighwayLand]

I lived in Norwalk back in the 80's and early 90's, would watch reruns of Emergency on KTLA all the time, and yet I had no idea that the station was a simple 17 miles from me. Pre-internet days, so how would I know? Would love to see that old rig!

[@garykcs5532]

If you took the universal studios tour back in that day they would tell you where that fire station was

[@marcmcdonald2888]

It's not Carsonville, it's just Carson

[@Johnnyjonas274]

Bring back the old school tones!! Lol

[@garykcs5532]

Outstanding good to see the old foam 10

[@MrGruffteddybear]

If I ever win the lottery and if that station ever closes I would purchase it and turn it into a museum in memory of Emergency. I would even try to purchase the original vehicles and equipment if possible. Great show. Still watch to this day.

[@TimSmith-uc4pk]

Yup. I agree. That Ford sitting there looks pretty bada**!

Neat Ford!

[@mattrozhon465]

Engine 127 no more?

[@MadScribbler67]

Engine 127 became the new Engine 100 in Hermosa Beach.

[@DarrellLowell67]

wow.....just wow....

[@loganf.3493]

Weird that they have an emergency traffic light but it was green when the truck rolled out

[@jmWhyMe]

LAC units usually have two seals on the doors. Why does Q127 only have one?

[@Hillmansfirephotography]

Sadly Station 127 isn't a Lightforce Anymore. It's Only Quint Now.

[@jmWhyMe]

Think about the huge difference in cost by removing an engine, an engineer and a firefighter from the company. Quints make a lot more sense economically, and with the staffing situation every department is facing those two crew members can be reassigned to be more productive.

[@YelpBullhorn]

Is that really a quint, and not a tiller?

[@gnorman9314]

@yelpbullhorn it's both, it's a quint too because it has a pump

[@trob0914]

A “Quint” is by it’s NFPA definition five components;1) An aerial ladder 2) Has a complement( usually 200+ feet),of ground ladders 3)Has a pump 4) Has a water tank 5)Has a complement of attack line and supply hose. Being that it’s a tiller has nothing to do with whether it’s qualified as a “Quint”!

[@YelpBullhorn]

@trob0914 .... thank you for that, but I do know what a quint is. It's just that I've never seen a tiller quint before, that's all.

[@trob0914]

@@YelpBullhornLAFD&LACOFD have several!!

[@CentralVirginiaEAS]

Wait, was that QuikCall I?

[@FL92002]

Not sure. It might have been.

[@Butlerfishing707]

Not a mid mount stick. It’s a 100’ TDA. Mid mounts don’t bend in the middle like a TDA or Tiller.

[@Stargazzer811]

He's refering to where it's mounted on the chassis, which is in the middle. And looking at the length of the stick? Yeah no that's a 75 foot, not 100.

[@Cocomelonfireball]

Any videos of that old girl responding?

[@FL92002]

Unfortunately, the foam unit did not respond while I was there.

[@ocscards9]

yea she's a spare the frontline is a 2012 International

[@EvanDowell1213]

I have a video of when it was being used as Foam 73. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6epd5hpo72LfpY
