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.

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

Nice Pics!! Coolgardie hasn't changed much since I was there!! Still remember living next door to the police station. Fire station is across the road from memory.. and there was a huge leisure centre next door!!

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

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.
