Carmichael FPD circa 1981 (3) -- Engine 9

            (W. L. Hammond photo, dated April 7, 1981. Scan of a slide from my collection.)

The Carmichael Fire Protection District (Sacramento County, California) used to run this 1965 Crown Firecoach pumper-tanker. It had a 1500-GPM pump and a 2500-gallon water tank. 

Carmichael FPD merged with Arden FPD in 1983 to form the American River FPD. As of December 2000, the former Carmichael Station 9 is now Sacramento Metro Fire Station 109.

Sometime after the American River merger, this rig went to the Northside FPD in El Dorado County, California. I am unaware of its current status.

This behemoth was pretty impressive when rolling Code 3.
