- Exploring an amazing - and free! - museum dedicated to the history of the L.A. Fire Department. The incredible staff, all retired firefighters, are incredible hosts.
Thank you for walk through. I remember as a young Explorer scout. Riding on a KW with a ( HAL SCOTT) power plant. We got to use it as are Drill rig. Should have stopped by Museum on way to ( Hall of Flame Museum) in Phenix Arizona. We bypass LA county, time being are enemy. We where DONATING a model T too the Museum in Arizona. It is on Display now on floor. I am in the Process of Restoration of 1971 SeaGrave, my favorite Cab growing up. It's a WORKS in progress. Have a Parade this Saturday with her, for the Kids. There is so much work to Restore these works of art, can't say enough about what LA County has done to give back to History of there Department.
Thanks so much for your recollections and especially for restoring another Seagrave! The more of these amazing machines we can save, the better!
I'm always amazed at the hand lettering and pinstriping.
Awesome fire museum 😎 great tour 👍

It really does show, doesn't it? The folks that take care of this museum really love what they do. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
HAPPY ALL THAT HISTORY FOUND ITS WAY BACK HOME ! MOST IMPRESSIVE !🇺🇲
It really is an astounding collection; thanks for watching and commenting!
A little tidbit about the firehouse. LAFD Station 27 was used in many TV shows and films throughout the years. Back in 1966, The Beach Boys shot the Good Vibrations music video there and can be seen on TH-cam. Great footage of the guys sliding the fire poles and riding on Engine 27.
That is an amazing bit of music history that I'd never heard before; thanks so much!
I love the museum already! I have got to go there. I have to thank you for posting this as well. I love the Model T fire engine and there are others I'm in love with already! What history.
Thank you so much for your kind words!

Taikuu for sharing this awesome video.
You live in a spectacular state! Thank you for watching and commenting!
. @17:54, "London's Burning" was a U.K action-drama about the London Fire Brigade. It ran from 1988-2002 and followed the firefighters of Blue Watch at Blackwell Station. For any fans of "Emergency!", I believe you'd like it. The pilot movie (from 1986) and various episodes are up on TH-cam.
Awesome information; thank you for sharing that! I will definitely look the show up here.

Here’s the link to Part 1 of the 1986 pilot movie. (It s been divided into parts)
I think the best companion to a North American show is “Hill Street Blues”, in that it’s an action-drama with doses of black comedy. As well, it shows both the work and personal lives of the characters. (Without it becoming a soap opera.)
Please tell me what you think. 😎

The white NSW FB that the film director had is also from Australia and came into operation after the brass one
Back at the early '80s my father Dwayne and uncle john owned AGA fire apparatus and rebuilt LA counties fire trucks along with vallejo's fallbrooks and a couple other ones I was young I can't remember all of them but I seen him restore totally from the ground up several of them build new cabs roofs doors on the crown coaches new engines rebuilt pumps
completely restore new wireing emron paint 24 ct gold hand striped an sweraled Jon Avalaugh was the stripping profectionest all by brush free hand several of them I think it was about 40 of them.loved the TV show squad 51 .. I live the dream going from LA county to Northern California in a fire truck with my Dad driving as fast as that sucker would go with fire coming out the exhaust pipe about 68 all they had to bring it back to get restored I thought it was great Great Memories..
This is an amazing story; thank you so much for sharing it! Driving up the California coast in a restored fire truck sounds incredible! And thanks for watching and commenting!
Is this the old Hollywood station on Cahuenga?
11:27 the driver seat is at the left? I thought all vehicles in America have left driver seats
You are sharp to notice this! I had to look it up, but apparently, early American cars were designed with the steering wheel on the right. I don't know the vintage of this fire truck but perhaps it was designed and built while right-side steering was still in use!
Robert.Just letting you know that brass helmet that has NSW FB on it comes all the way from Australia
Super cool; thank you for sharing that detail! And thanks for watching and commenting!
