I love the old snorkles. I remember going to one of the City auctions and one of them sold for something like $1200.00. The pneumatics on those things are worth more than that.
I also liked the fact that Station 27 used to be unique as it was the only station with an engine, rescue and truck company. But no more.
station 1 has all 3 types of unit
True, they do now.
Station 16 also had an Engine, Rescue Unit and a Truck. I worked on all three back in the '70's.

I remember my dad working at 27 when they shared a station with 30. We lived in Roebuck down the road from the station and I would always hear them going out on runs. Man...the childhood days...
