Engine 28 until about 1990 I'd say. All in house and local custom work to convert her to a foam tender. So many names and so much history attached. Her sister rig (Engine 4) from this order is retired in a private collection out in Virginia.
@@Itsmedicinal So like, in a 6 month period, you can see it show up on a ticket at least 6 to 10 times, but actual turn outs are usually anywhere from 2 to 3 per year.
I can't believe that they still allow a Detroit Diesel to operate in the state of California! But I'm glad it is. It doesn't get much simpler than that
Coming from someone who lives in an area where the bitter cold and road grime can ruin equipment, I'm jealous of the weather in California. I swear trucks just last longer there.
@@alansohn855 You know; this would be true until you realize KMEs don't like anything above 65 degrees - and everyone and their mom here can't stop buying them 😂😂😂 The KMEs by me just went down today this morning. 😂😂. Only half the battle my friend. Never go low bid 🔥🔥
There was one on Terminator 3 Rise of The Machines when T-X blew it up The fire department in my area doesn't use the Crown Firecoach anymore 😔 I wish they could still use them
Just because they brought out an old piece of apparatus doesn't mean they're broke. They can still purchase brand new apparatus if they wish, but they prefer to use this one.
Doubtful, but even if you're not broke, why waste money on a brand new special purpose rig that won't see a ton of use when you can just convert one of the rigs you already have into the special purpose unit once the replacement engine arrives?
That’s wonderful! Seeing old trucks responding to incidents
Always loved the Crown. 1st saw it on Emergency!. Thought it was cool how the officer could stand up in the cab. Just like an officer in battle.
That beautiful old Crown is still running front line! Can't say that about a lot of the newer models.
Crown was (and still is) the king of fire trucks (and school buses).

How often is this used?

Yo its me johnny
@@emergencyresponsevideosand4423 Hello Johnny from Chile, it's be nolovefordivision2 from Division 2
That’s a genuine piece of firefighting history
It is cool to see that there some of the old school trucks out there.
Nice to see the old 1970 Crown Firecoach Foam Tender still in service today at a 4th alarm fire
Had no idea Anaheim still had a Crown firecoach in service 😮
they don't ..thats an OCFA unit on mutual aid.

Always enjoyable to see the older units do their thing. Does anyone have video of it pumping?
Godbless Californian Engineering. From a more civilized time. 52 years and 6 days running frontline.

@nolovefordivision2 OK fair one on that 😂
cool rig
Just love the classic crown Engines 👍❤
I wonder what's the oldest truck still responding to calls in the country as of Sept 2024
Is she still responding as of right now?

Rare.
Rear seating doesn’t look OSHA compliant.
Out of retirement!
Wow!
Any idea what motor this rig is powered by?
This particular one has a Detroit 8V-71
@@shaneharrisnj3484Surprised it doesn't have the original Hall and Scott engine.
Ohhh heck yeah
If it ain't broke dont fix it.
Anacrime.
It's not a crime to bring this truck back, they needed extra resources and this baby was perfect for the job!
@@EvanDowell1213 That's what they call the city of Anaheim
Anaslime as well lol
Woah. OCFA is poor.

I highly doubt that.....OCFA covers some of the most expensive real estate in the world.

What a beauty
