I believe this was purchased with a grant for $325,000 from New York State due to the department being one of the primary responders to incidents on and around the new Tappan Zee Bridge. I think the brand is Lake Assault.

To be replaced later this year by a Seagrave rescue pumper.

And looks like the demolition of the old Station 1 is now in full swing....

The downtime was due to issues with the host, which have now been resolved. The ads, albeit a bit intrusive, allow me to fund the site with less money out of my pocket. You should be able to see and post in the Incident Alert forum once again. The Archive setting was only temporary while I moved some things around, but I didn't realize I missed a setting. I've also moved the Incident Chatbox back to the top of the site. I've also consolidated the site a bit, to try to make it easier to read and use. Any suggestions to how to make the site better please let me know. Also, please let me know if anything seems out of whack. Thanks @AFS1970 and everyone for your continued loyalty to the site.

I'll see if I can dig up some of my favorite compartment shots. In the meantime, I'm in awe of European rigs and how they organize things:

I don't know if this is a good thing....I hope the quality doesn't suffer like other restaurants ruined by expansion
