I watched this episode (season 3, episode 2) while I was at the gym this morning. It's one of my favorite of the entire series. Several interesting story lines, some neat shots of new (and, of course, old fire equipment), and one of my huge crushes from the 70s, Laurette Spang. She was in a lots of mid 70s TV before she was cast in her most memorable role, Cassiopeia on the original Battlestar Galactica. She had a great 1970s look and often stole a scene. In this episode, her deadpan delivery of her lines was funny and offset the situation with her roommate's overdose on acid.

I loved the old fire engine and how it was tied into the history of the area, including a big earthquake in 1933. The passion that Roy and John had for the old truck was cool, and you even saw Captain Hank Stanley showing how important it would be to restore it.

All around, a fun episode to (re)watch.
