The Los Angeles County Fire Department - Station 106 is located on Indian Peak Road and is the headquarters for Battalion 14 with 8 fire stations covering West Palos Verdes, Two Harbors Avalon (on Catalina Island), Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills (a very posh private city), and Lomita.The firefighters were at their workout when I passed by (look between the trucks, in the back), and then they got a call and zoomed out of the station...

My husband is a big fan of the OLD TV show 'Emergency' - the LA fire dept. with the paramedics. The opening shot to episodes looks JUST like your first photo!
Much better in pictures.
Doesn't hurt my ears!!!!
Fire Stations. I think I've spent my fair share of time at one particular station. Actually, the murals in LB were across the street from a station. They allowed me to store my stuff and use their facilities.
Now as a linguist the thing I noticed as much as the shiny red fire engines was that you call a fire station a fire station, whereas in Canada it would be a 'fire hall'. I always thought fire hall was North American as a whole.
I don't care what age you are, you gotta love Fire Engines!!!
TOOT~TOOT... blow the horn OK!
Cherry red, cherry red! I love 'em!
