I think a big thankyou is in order for your time and effort on this spreadsheet wpxzbp.
And a great effort by all others who contribute to the spreadsheet with latest sightings and listings of new callsigns.
I think if its ok with all others, that a spreadsheet be made for FRS/BFS - and maybe for the Paramedics if its ok? just a thought

Might be interesting but I'd need a bit of a photo essay to help indentify vehicles. "This is a picture of a 2.4" etc. Do all FESA vehicles have the station name printed on the sides? What about CALM vehicles?WPXZBP wrote: PS - should I do one for FRS/BFS vehicles?

Check out the FESA website for the vehicle summary.vk6hgr wrote:Might be interesting but I'd need a bit of a photo essay to help indentify vehicles.

Click here for the info or for a more detailed view on the Mazda Light Pumper, Toyota Landcruiser Light Tanker and Rescue Trailer try the Merredin VF&RS website for more info.
Career stations have now been marked with a fluorescent yellow sticker at the front and/or sides with the station name. Newer VFRS/VBFS vehicles are also coming out with station names on the sides. FESA staff vehicles and appliances also have selcall numbers emblazoned on the top in black numbers. All new FESA staff vehicles and appliances are now sporting the fluorescent yellow striping.
It will take a little time to set up a spreadsheet for CFRS/VFRS/VBFS vehicles now that I am at work but will try setting one up. As for stations, if anyone wants to see what VFRS stations look like, the WA Volunteer Fire & Rescue Services Association has pics and some details. Click here for the site.

WPXZBP, keep up the great work.
Just a couple of corrections which are mostly my own fault for not being clear with details.
The rodeo's in Gero are 4wd, 107 is a ford not landcruiser and all there fords have cages not pods.
Also seen another FR201 white VZ with VLB although once again not sure of its origin....
