Sacramento Metro FD -- MCS 101(?) - a photo on Flickriver

            Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District ("Metro Fire") MCS 101. "MCS"=Multi-Casualty Response.

This 1980's GMC is a former ambulance (originally Florin FPD Medic 53) that has been reconfigured as a support unit for mass-casualty incidents. It is seen in front of Fire Station 101, near Town & Country Village in the Arcade area of unincorporated Sacramento. (This may be a reserve or backup rig, as I've also seen a somewhat newer International ambulance conversion marked "MCS 101").

I have been wanting a shot of this rig for some time now--by the nature of its mission, it does not roll on incidents very often and I don't usually see it outside the station.
