Most of the equipment is old by American standards but compared to the rest of Luzon, it's much better.

We we're running out of time and I didn't have time to get a thousand pictures of the trucks like I normally do.

Most of them are from the late 80s and early 90s.

There are newer trucks in Binondo and I've seen them. They are Chinese and seem to have the same features. As far as stations go though, this is the biggest.

I've also seen the results of a recent fire in a high rise building. The buildings must have their own fire suppression systems or fire hoses because there just aren't enough fire trucks to effectively respond to fires in time to prevent them from destroying an entire building.
