@wlittle Generally if the companies make it this far from downtown it is a working fire. The heavy resuce and the ladder truck that followed them were from downtown.
@Skankpronger The first 2 Quality Monarch Pumpers were not purchased until 1987 and they did not put the red reflective tape on until 1990-1. But thank you for the comment.

Good morning Doc. I'm curios . . . was there anything to the call. Did it end up being a working fire?

Not to get distracted by Skankpronger's comment but, did Shreveport allow firemen to ride the tailboard until the ban in '87?
