"Squad" S-629 is scheduled for a chassie replacement which means that this FL will probably be replaced by an E-One if rumors are true. In this shot it was just recently refurbed for the Harvey Volunteer Fire Department. This Hackney/FL crewcab is equipped with a positive air pressure cab and enought fire fighting equipment on board to handle anything from a small house fire to a large chemical plant emergency.

I love those old Macks. Harvey Vol Fire Co. No.2 rescue vehicle (R-629) is one tuff looking bulldog with the flat nose and boxie equipment compartment. I love the styling and the classic look of the red and silver rims. Unfortunately, this rescue vehicle has been replaced by S-629, also posted on this site.

Seems like all of Jefferson Parish has money to spend on new equipment, finally. This is the newest for the community of Harvey, Louisiana, a 2001 E-One with a 105' ladder. Ladder L-617 is housed on the Gretna side of the Harvey Canal not far from West Jefferson High School.
