Emergency!

[FirePix1075]

Just watched the first episode "The Wedsworth-Townsend Act" on the Emergency! DVD - wow does that bring back memories. Although I was only 1 month old when that debut aired, I have vivid childhood memories of watching the TV show growing up. Can't wait to watch the next 8 hours....

For apparatus buffs, the first episode was great... that Crown Snorkel, the LACoFD "Deluge" unit, old rescue squads and a host of other historic rigs.

Some interesting information - the old Squad 51 vehicle, while speced out by LACOFD did not actually have a siren in it - they had to use tapes of sirens.

By the way, where did you get the DVD? I have about 24 episodes on VHS, but would like to get more. Please advise.

Bought it @ Wal Mart - around $27 if I remember correctly...double DVD set with about 10 hours worth of episodes!
