ZO100_marto,

Top shots man.

I also saw that article on GWN news last night and they showed KG204 (silver VZ SV6 HWP) crusing up towards the camera, it had a silver front end now.

Are you sure it was written-off?

Interesting they also showed some footage of it at night with about 3 BA/BF paddy wagons and the front fog lights were flashing with in an alternating pattern...Looked impressive.

Well was told it was written off anyway. That was late last year if I remember and it's only just hit the road again a few weeks ago so been missing for over 6 months me tinks.

Boy they been given it a work out since back on the road thats for sure

Snapped a few shots while at "Coolgardie Day". Plus found a couple of pics I hadn't uploaded yet. Been playing with my new toy

Canon 400D with a Sigma 18-200 lens

Coolgardie's Traffic Car opens the parade

Don't know anything about Fire Trucks but here they are...

All I can see is they looked brand spankin new!

KG636

This was Morley's Ford "41" still in tip top shape too

Anyone wonder what happened to the first ever Merc "49" Poor suckers

Coolgardie KC 101 4WD

This week has been the biggest of the year for Kalgoorlie, bucket loads of staff and vehicles are called in from other districts during Kalgoorlie Race Round. I've heard on the radio YR101, AY202 TE202, AY201 KN202, and I think it was YT201.

This is the volunteer Fire Stn which back up Kalgoorlie for mainly structial fires, its lcated in North Kal (Suburb)

Enjoy, I'll try to get off my butt a bit more with the new toy

Kalgoorlie has a career station and the former North and South Kal vollies have formed a new Kalgoorlie VFRS.

Kal sounds just like Albany - MPHR, LT and 2.4U.

Hope this helps

They also have the Toyota which I assume is what you call an LT

WPXZBP · Post by **WPXZBP** » Fri Sep 21, 2007 8:45 pm

Yep - exactly.

Interesting that their 2.4U is a single cab.

All the career ones are, AFAIK. For them they aren't primary response appliances??

Agreed - they use the MPHR/LT combo for first response.
