Palo Alto Fire Department responded to a two alarm fire at a residence on Loma Verde Ave following a fire that started in the rear garage/auto shop of a very crowded house. The resident was reluctant to leave feeling he had the situation under control, despite the rear of the premises being fully engulfed in flames. He was eventually rescued from the premises and transported to hospital. The fire had unusually large amounts of fuel both inside and outside the building, with neighboring houses very close to the structure there was a significant exposure threat.
In 2009 Palo Alto replaced 6 of their front line engines with new Pierce pumpers built on the Arrow XT chassis. Engines 1 through 6 are all new engines. The 7th engine based at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Fire Station is funded separately through federal dollars and wasn't replaced as part of this purchase.

Part of the winding engine at Astley Green Colliery Museum.
(The winding duty for the Number 1 shaft required the installation of one of the largest steam winding engines used in Britain. It was manufactured by Yates and Thom of Blackburn and installed between 1910 and 1912. It has four cylinders in twin tandem compound arrangement which developed nearly 2.5 Mega Watts at 58 rpm. The rope speed was 26 metres per second when winding coal.
The Number 2 engine was also built by Yates and Thom but it was only half the size of the Number 1 engine with two cylinders in cross compound arrangement. The delivery of the engine was delayed by the first world war and it was not operational until 1919.) Taken from the museum website.
