  6-4-16 carries mainly extra Truck co. equipment (Hand tools, vent fans, lights, air bottles, ETC.). The main purpose is to take Engine co.s from staging and turn them into Truck co.s for searchs and truck work. It also has a few high rise nozzles and the HERO pipe. Attached is a link to my photos of Engine Co. 18s quarters where you can see a photo of the inside of the rear of the apparatus.

  Great photo’s Larry. Thanks for sharing.
  Can anyone explain what 6-4-16 High Rise Unit’s purpose is or what it carries
  that is unique for high rise incidents?
