Continuity mistake: Scene 1 has Station 51 with Engine 51 as the 'Ward Le France' and Squad 51. However in the next scene, Engine 51 is the 'open cab crown fire coach' that comes out with 'Squad 51' to respond to the responding call.
Trivia: Although many realistic freeway numbers and exits mentioned over the 2-way radio are real, they were not used in the show. An unused section of the 210 freeway (close to the 118 freeway) in the San Fernando Valley that wasn't quite open to the public yet, was the location nearly always shown on the show representing whatever location is mentioned. If you see many episodes, you can see the same section of freeway always shown.
