Actually the firestation that was used in that tv show is station 127 of the los angles county fire department.Carson California and is still in operation today. That station was renamed the Robert Cinadar Firestation in honor of the producer who did so much to promote the paramedic profession. All that was filmed at that place was exterior shots and shots of the vehicles as they were pulling out of and backing into  the station. On another note there actually is a Los Angels County Fire Department station 51 the department put that one on the grounds of Universal studios and it does contain an engine and paramedic unit. As far as I  know station 127 does not have paramedics.

As for the hospital that was supposed to be Rampart General is actually Harbor UCLA Medical Center and from pictures i have seen none of the exteriors as seen on the tv show exist anymore.  Except for the main tower it still has remnants of the old exterior.  Please pm me if you wish to see shots of the fire station and hospital.

Fire Station 51 is in real life Los Angeles County Fire Station 127 located at 2049 E. 223rd Street in Carson. The station is still in service with little change.

The Harbor UCLA Medical Center served as Rampart Emergency Hospital in the series. The hospital is located in Torrance, California. 1000 West Carson Street.
