I recently came across an amazing photo catalog of probably every vehicle in the FDNY, as well has hundreds of other fire departments on the East Coast. If you're a firefighting junkie like me, if you've been to NYC and have seen some odd firefighting rig, or if you have a penchant for the offbeat, this site is for you.
You can see current and previous versions of basically any FDNY engine or truck company as well as current FDNY tow trucks, fuel trucks, training vehicles, reserve vehicles, command post vehicles, and any other special units including tractors. Other NYC agencies with firefighting vehicles and the 10 volunteer fire departments located within NYC limits are also on the site.
Unfortunately, the site doesn't load perfectly in IE or Netscape, so you'll have to work around the odd look. (Enjoy the siren sound or the Bronx dispatch sound clip on the home page.) If you take a look at the site, I hope you're on a high-speed connection...
