WMPTE Daimler Fleetline YOX 178K is standing at the terminus of the 4 Route to Pool Farm, pulling round it Midland Red Daimler Fleetline/Alexander DD13 YHA 273J. The Midland Red, in poppy red is working to Redditch on the 147 service. On his bike at the bus stop is an early example of a hoodie trying to look 'cool', to do that he should have the Ford Capri that is going in the opposite direction. At the side of the Midland Red and the Wolsley Farina 15/60 is the fire station, remarkably this is still just about open.

Castle Beach has just annexed 2 neighboring cities (Sequoia and Blue Hills) and has taken over the two fire departments. Since the 5 "new" fire engines are in good condition, the city has decided to keep them until the next batch is ordered. Sequoia Station 1 will now become Station 6, and Blue Hills Station 1 will become Station 7.
The beast arrives! After a visit to the shops, Truck 6 (Former Sequoia Truck 1) was retrofitted with equipment specified in the SOP. However, since this truck contains less space than the tillers, it does not carry the same amount of ground ladders, bulky rescue/hazmat equipment, and one of the required 3 PPV fans. Like the rest of the truck companies, the driver's side was structured to carry truck company equipment, while the officer's side was designed to store rescue tools. The driver's side contains forcible entry tools, salvage materials, roof saws, K-12 saws, reciprocating saws, salvage equipment, ropes, RIT equipment, and 2 large fans for ventilation. The officer's side contains one complete Hurst extrication equipment, a Stokes basket, a crash kit, a Hydra-ram, bolt cutters, a large amount of cribbing, a 375-ton 14-piece air bag set, Hurst shoring equipment, pneumatic drills and saws. This truck also carries some basic Hazmat equipment due to the station's proximity to the interstate.
In addition, the apparatus carries 211 ft. of ground ladders. The complement consists of extension ladders, wall ladders, and roof ladders. The extension ladder complement consists of one 35 ft. ladder, one 14 ft. ladder, one 12 ft ladder, and one collapsible 10 ft. ladder. The wall ladder complement includes two 24 ft. ladders and two 16 ft. ladders. The roof ladder complement has one 20 ft. ladder, one 16 ft. ladder, and two 12 ft. ladders.

*Builder's note*
In case you are wondering, the four of the first five compartments (the large compartment ahead of the stabilizers, the tiny cabinet above the stabilizers, and the two smaller compartments behind the stabilizers) are all connected via SNOT. The rear compartment opens and allows storage of the ground ladders. I'm really pleased by the outcome of this rig so far!
Any comments and ratings would be greatly appreciated!!

The driver's side was structured to carry truck company equipment, while the officer's side was designed to store rescue tools. The driver's side contains forcible entry tools, salvage materials, roof saws, K-12 saws, reciprocating saws, salvage equipment, over 2000 ft. in ropes, RIT equipment, and three large fans for ventilation.

In addition, the apparatus carries 276 ft. of ground ladders. The complement consists of extension ladders, wall ladders, and roof ladders. The extension ladder complement consists of two 35 ft. ladders, one 14 ft. ladder, one 12 ft ladder, and one collapsible 10 ft. ladder. The wall ladder complement includes two 24 ft. ladders, two 20 ft. ladders, and two 16 ft. ladders. The roof ladder complement has one 20 ft. ladder, one 16 ft. ladder, and two 12 ft. ladders.
Designed to be a straight truck, Truck 4 carries no water or hose, but the ladder is prepiped with a 1500 gpm monitor for ladder pipe operations.

Awesome shot of Onondaga County's new Western Star tandem. The yellow isn't an exact match to Onondaga County's usual school bus yellow so I wonder if this was another dealer demo unit.
There is no mate to this truck. However, the County did purchase another 2012 Western Star, No. 192 which is an all-wheel-drive double wing unit. We need some pictures of that beast up here!
Visit dailydieseldose.com for more awesome truck pictures. Thanks again Eric for allowing me to share these here.
She's back! Originally serving as Rescue 1, the recently refurbished 1978 Mack CF returns to frontline service as Decon 1. This particular piece of apparatus operated as Rescue 1 for 12 years prior to being replaced by a 1990 Pierce Arrow Heavy Duty Rescue. Following this period, it was refurbished before being pressed into service as Hazmat 1 and served in that capacity until 2005. It was the reserve hazmat unit for almost 10 years before it was refurbished again this year. Despite many advances with scene lighting, electronic sirens, and the like, the department opted to keep as many details as original as possible. This included retaining the classic B&M Super Chief siren, Federal Signal Aerodynic halogen rotator lightbar, and repainting the compartment doors. Since this apparatus is cross-staffed by Hazmat 1, there was no need for the department to close the open cab, which in turn, saved the department a couple thousand dollars. Upgrades to the apparatus included a new Detroit Diesel DD13 engine and a new rear door for the walk-in compartment

Watching the Perseids Meteor Shower with Mom and Claire. This is 3 AM. It was awesome we saw a ton of meteors, I didn't get any really good pictures but would be game to try again next year! This is another abstract picture, I must be in an abstract mood. This is how well my iphone could handle all the darkness of the evening.

The four 1996 Dennis Dominators DD13-16 - the last of their type to be built - were to my mind superb vehicles spoilt only by their over sensitive gearbox which led to constant changes up and down the box. DD13 (N713 TPK) is seen here in Guildford in February, 1998, on Cranleigh route 73. By the time that I joined the company, this would become the 53 and these Dominators made only rare appearances being usually allocated to 3s and 34s out of Guildford depot. I have no idea if any of these buses are still around anywhere.
Particularly difficult were the forward wheel wells. As yo can see here, the wells are offset by 1/2 brick, so they are 7-wide as compared to the rest of the cab and body which are 6-wide.
