Kern County, California Fire Apparatus

by Shaun Ryan

Kern County, California has a variety of fire departments including federal, state, county and municipal agencies. In 2010 we were able to add a substantial number of posed apparatus images to our collection from these departments. The largest department in Kern County is the Kern County Fire Department which operates from 46 stations and this agency was the focus of much of our photography this past year. The apparatus of the Kern County Fire Department is primarily Pierce. However, the fleet includes other commercial chassis builders and an interesting variety of specialized apparatus. All of the Kern County Fire Department is white with blue lettering and striping, a most attractive color scheme. Other departments include the Bakersfield Fire Department which is also heavily invested in Pierce equipment particularly Pierce Quantum vehicles.

The following images are typical of the photography which we are able to offer from Kern County. Please see our latest listing for Kern County for a detailed listing of apparatus photography currently available from this interesting area.
