Emergency!

The Old Engine - S3-E2

Visible crew/equipment: When Engine 51 gets dispatched to their first run on the new Ward LaFrance engine, Captain Stanley tells Johnny and Roy to get their gear to go with them. When the paramedics go to the closet to get the turnout coats, the bulging outlines of the mic transmitters and wires are visible on the sides of their shirts before putting on the turnouts. The outline of Johnny's mic transmitter is also visible when he first walks over to the new engine.

Tee Vee - S5-E11

Visible crew/equipment: After Roy climbs down the manhole, he leans to the right (the second time), and when he points the flashlight down the tunnel on the right, the moving shadow of camera equipment is visible on the wall. We know it's not Roy's shadow because when he leans back to the left, that shadow is still moving on the tunnel wall.

Trivia: A plaque that honors Bob Cinader is mounted on Station 127's wall, outside beside the apparatus bay door. The plaque reads: "Robert A. Cinader's Involvement with the Los Angeles County Fire Department began in 1971 when he filmed a pilot television movie about the county's fledgling paramedic program."Emergency!" aired in 1972 and ran as a prime time show for five years with a weekly audience of 13 million people. The show brought attention and acclaim to the Los Angeles County Fire Department. More importantly, it showed public officials across the nation that lives could be saved by local paramedic programs. As a result, Bob Cinader can be credited for making significant contributions to improving Emergency Medical Services. His Involvement and commitment was so intense, and his study of emergency services so thorough, he became an expert in the field. In 1975, he was appointed to the county's Emergency Medical Services Commission, where he served until his death in 1982. In recognition of his extraordinary public service, on May 28,1985, the board of supervisors voted unanimously to pay special tribute to Bob Cinader by naming Fire Station 127 in Carson, which was used in the filming of "Emergency!", in his honor." Fire Station 127 is named the Robert A. Cinader Memorial Fire Station.
