New on the County Channel
 Welcome to Meet the Fleet: the show that takes you inside the cab and under the hood of LA County's fleet of vehicles. With more than 17,000 vehicles in its garage, LA County is ready to respond to anything by land, sea or air. Meet the Fleet will showcase how these machines serve the people of Los Angeles County and introduce you to operators who make them run.
In this episode, ride into the fire with the LA County Fire Department and learn about the heavy machinery they use when the heat is on.
You can watch more stories like this on Channel 92 or 94 on most cable systems, or anytime here. Catch up on LA County Close-Up here.
