So ...what ever happened.? Is it back yet?

How long is it gonna be gone? Split up the rescue duties around the dept?

Find any old OFD Rescue 14 pics in that box?....

I've noticed that there really hasnt been any parade results being posted, like there has always been in the past....anybody wanna post some?.

Frank Vassalo...Wow, havent heard that name in forever. Had the gas station out towards 133 on Croton Ave, right?

At least it still has a "42" on it, huh? btw, didnt I read somewhere that Cataract was approved for a new rig, along with 99 & 42?

...Thats what I thought. Thanks Steve. Looks like the weather was good yesterday. Hope all went well.

Great pics Keep em' comin! BTW, where is 42 living these days? If i remember, it didnt fit on Snowden Ave....just curious.

The "old" L42 still on the job....I thought the new TL was in service already? Great pics by the way!!!

This happened here in Vegas last year. Homeowner lit up his house, and hid outside waiting for PD/FD. Put half a dozed rounds into 2 first due rigs till PD dropped him, which is what he wanted to begin with. Suicide by cop with a twist.....

Just wondering if there are plans in the work for a wet down for the 2 new rigs?

I'm good with a yearly fee. I enjoy checking this site out all the time, just took for granted how much it actually takes to run....my apologies.....

What ever happened with talks for the new house?

cool - the other jets fans! . even though they're the heart attack ' team, i've always pulled for them and still do. I coach my sons football team ( the Jets!) spent a few hundred on the helmet logos and stripes, plus kick a** jerseys....sorry - gotta go for the home team! GO JETS!!!!!! ps . . . .i miss my season tickets!

anyone? . . . . . . . . . anyone?

Additionally, I recently was recently passing a fire station where a department was dispatched for a call and they were awaiting additional personnel to arrive at the station so they could respond with a full crew. The engine was sitting on the ramp idling with its lights on just sitting there. Why I have no clue except to confuse oncoming motorist. It nearly got myself and several other vehicles rear ended because of the confusion this causes. Keep them off until your ready to go. ← Anytime we were ever standing by, waiting for the rest of a crew, i would never turn the system on till we were ready to roll. Our house was on a busy bi-way- i've seen crews sitting on the tarmac waiting, running full lights - traffic would be stopping, waiting for us, thinking we were going.... Finally it be came a rule - nothing more that parking lites on till we were Signal 2.....

AWSOME AWESOME NEWS!!!! CONGRATULATIONS TO THE ENTIRE FAMILY!!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!! Jimmy Hoyt
