Engine 9

1973 Ward LaFrance

The Pride of Station 9!

Winner of the 2008 & 2009 1000GPM Pumping Contest!

Look familiar?  Engine 51?  The story goes that the TV show, Emergency!, needed their Engine for the show.  ORFD was supposed to get the first truck off of the assembly line.  However, Emergency! needed an engine, so they got "ours" and we got "theirs".  Ours obviously has a few changes to it now after a refurbish, but the cab still looks  similar.
