  1. PORT CHESTER EX ENGINE 60 is dedicated to Firefighter EUGENE MILLER PORT CHESTER FIRE DEPT RESCUE 40 who died in the line of duty in 1991 while operating at a working fire on traverse ave. he is always in our hearts and minds, also the 343 that we all will never forget.

  12. There's the piece of junk E-ONE that the village paid for. the first one in the hudson valley $90,000.00 dollers to buy it $40,000 to kept it running for seven year's :angry:
  13. That is very good info, hope it saves many lives!
  14. Just a start to answer some . This picture was taken from about 1/3 a mile away. the tow trucks were futher away then they appered and were taken out the shoulder, right, and middle lane [ 3 tow trucks]. Traffic was stopped completly to allow the engines to get to the scene from the wrong direction. We have worked on I95 for 50 years and its very tough to even get to the location. any body that covers it knows. We use flares when we have them, sometimes we run out [take from state when not looking]. Rescue 40 and 2391 I/C first on scene not visable in photo [ next to bus on shoulder ] Vests when we can afford them, all members in gear of some sort. traffic moving at about 5 miles an hour past scene. can it be done better you bet it can . Maybe the photo my son took will help make inprovements. I95 in my opinion is the toughest road to work on. As for the medical questions not my field maybe somebody can help out. Ive talked to quite a few that were on location including driver of rescue 40 my other son and the scene worked very well with over 61 transported and agencies that we never worked with before.
