it is a good idea to increase effiecence and decrease overcrowding but im wondering how tall the new cars would be considering there might be a height issue with some stations and in the tunnels Also, i thought that Metro North just start replacing their old cars with the new M-7's i dont think they would be able to spend tax dollars on new cars when they just got new ones

4 Firefighters Killed in Calif. Wildfire POPPET FLAT, Calif. - A wind-whipped wildfire started by an arsonist killed four firefighters Thursday and stranded up to 400 people in an RV park when flames burned to the edge of the only road out, officials said. "Everybody is hunkered down here. They're fighting the fire around us. It's across the street from us," said Charles Van Brunt, a ranger at the station at the entrance to Silent Valley Club, the recreational vehicle park near Palm Springs. The residents were in no immediate danger, he said. Authorities asked people in the RV park to stay put to leave the roads clear for firefighters. Hundreds of others in the area were forced from their homes. Fire officials said the fire was deliberately set around 1 a.m. and offered a $100,000 reward. Fire Chief John Hawkins said the arson "constitutes murder." The Forest Service crew was trying to protect a house as dry desert winds of 25 mph or more blew a wall of flames down on them in the hills northwest of Palm Springs. "They had left their truck to do structure protection when the fire overran them," said Forest Service spokesman Pat Boss, adding the flames came down so quickly they had no time to retreat to their engine or use protective sheltering. Three firefighters died at the scene and two were hospitalized in critical condition. One of those two died several hours later. The other had burns over 95 percent of his body, Boss said. The last time four firefighters died battling a blaze was July 10, 2001, fighting a fire in a remote canyon in Washington's Okanogan National Forest. The four became trapped by flames on a dusty dead-end road. Thursday's deaths brought to 19 the number of California firefighters killed in the line of duty over the past year, according to statistics kept by California Professional Firefighters, a lobbying organization. One other firefighter in the burned-out fire engine was critically injured, Boss said. He said the Forest Service pulled all its personnel off the fire after the deaths so they could "gather their thoughts, say their prayers." The fire quickly blackened more than six square miles and destroyed at least three homes. The weather service had issued a "red flag" warning for extreme fire danger because of the high winds and dry conditions. Thick smoke blanketed the small RV park off Highway 243, where as many as 400 people were stranded, authorities said. TV footage showed some vehicles racing through flames and smoke just before firefighters closed the road. Van Brunt said people were advised to "watch the news and stay comfy." The cause of the wildfire was not immediately clear. It started early Thursday, burning in a valley with a few scattered ranch homes. The hamlets of Poppet Ranch and Twin Pines were evacuated along with a juvenile detention center, Twin Pines Boys Ranch. Evacuations were ordered, and by early morning, about 200 people had left their homes, fire Capt. Julie Hutchinson said. Officials worried the flames could reach an area of the San Bernardino National Forest where a bark beetle infestation had killed trees that could easily fuel a blaze. In the valley where the fire was burning, the ground cover is mostly grass and chaparral that burns fast and hot. "The biggest concern is if it gets over the hills," said Becky Luther, a spokeswoman for the Riverside County Fire Department. "That's where all of the homes are." Timo Hargu, 61, said he rushed from his hilltop home with his two dogs after he looked out a window and saw fire burning toward him in a valley. "The whole thing was ablaze with flame," he said. "It was the most spectacular view. A terrible view, but spectacular." http://www.optonline.net/Article/Feeds?CID...icle%3D19970535

the only problem with a garrity light is that for a light that can break very easily when you drop it, its not worth spending $4 for a flashlight so easy to break you dont need to spend $25 on LED strwamlight but maybe 10 for small high powered flashlight that wont break so easy

I tried a modified version of the FDNY Physical Test and its really hard...............eight stations.all under 10 minutes with 8 stations It is by far the most energy I have ever used in the shortest amount of time It is by far very hard and trying i have ever done The stairs are the worst, then you need to move on to the hose drag.....if you can get past those two its money baby but dont over exert yourself...your no good to the FDNY if you are dead but enough said......good luck.........its a lot of fun

Even if you cant see in a fire with a helmet mounted flashlight, you still need to see in the dark in the direction that your head is facing A flashlight mounted on your coat or on a strap does not allow you to see in the direction in which you need to see That is why in my opinion, you could need a helmet mounted flashlight

Bedford Engine 108 or Pound Ridge Engine 113

I know in Bedford, Rescue 44 has pre-connected Hurst tools in the back compartment of its body Also, Engine 110 have the Hurst tools in one of the compartments. Mini Attack 7 had Hurst chains on them but they were taken off years ago.
