Does each have an engine and a truck, or is it one or the other?

What company in New Rochelle was closed in 1976?

New Haven Line is Catenary from Pelham north.

Saw it traveling through Pelham the other day, just thought it was going to New Ro to do some training. No magnets though to cover up the Yonkers FD?

Bobby, what are you doing to yourself? Its about time, Congrats!!

Printed Tuesday August 29th, 2006 Author: Steve Dunleavy On Sunday morning, you may have been worried about how good the coffee was, had the dog been fed and, dammit, it was raining, so it was no good for golf. You didnt have a clue about Michael Reilly. Then on Monday, you heard about a 25-year-old kid who sacrificed his life in a crappy little buildin in The Bronx, along with Lt. Howard Carpluk, and you said, "What a shame." You'll read about the funerals and say, "What a shame" - then checked the weekend weather to see if it will be good for golf. Aren't we a bunch of selfindulgent wimps? We don't notice when men like Reilly go off to Iraq to save our sorry butts and come back to the streets of New York City to protect our sorry butts - along with a vereran lieutenant named Curpluck. The battles - whether in Iraq or on the streets of New York - are now over for those real-life John Waynes in a time when the word "hero" is thrown around far too loosely. Probie Mike Reilly started as a teen in the Ramsey volunteer rescue squad in New Jersey. His former boss, Eric Endress, said "I think it was just in his blood." I've known so many cops and firefighters where the job was "just in his blood." I've gone to too many funerals after their blood was spilled. After the funerals, can I ask of anyone who's reading this: Please put aside one hour, just one hour, to think of what these guys in the FDNY do every day. I only ask for one hour - call me at The Post to say you'll do it. Mike, I never met you, but somehow I think I know you and that good lieutenant - along with the rest of those dedicated and beautiful maniacs who look after all our sorry butts. Please, after the funerals of both these wonderful men, just take an hour and forget whether it's gonna be a good golf weekend or your boyfriend's gonna take you to the Hamptons or whatever. Think of these men - and say thank you.

Why not two bays, plan a little bit for the future maybe?

Cam, You going to volunteer someplace or where are you working?

yeah, im getting way too fustrated.

648, Leave the stokes and grab the sked.

LineCapt, Thats not why he created the site. Obviously a lot of the members of the site would rather read about one of the "buffy" topics as you say.

Thats no surprise M2theAX. Fire always seems to be far behind PD in this county.

From Firehouse.com: December 21, 2005 - At 9:17 am, Salisbury Station 2 was alerted for a automatic fire alarm activation at a local boat building facility. Engine 1-1 arrived on location with light smoke showing from a sawdust collection hopper. The crew of Engine 1-1 advanced an attack line to catwalk where the access panel was located. The crew opened the access door releasing light smoke and called for the line to be charged. The line was opened to wet down some of the smoldering sawdust when what is believed to be a dust explosion occurred. The officer of Engine 1-1 was caught in the explosion causing burns to the face, head, and neck area. The other firefighter on the catwalk was able to escape injury. The engineer of Engine 1-1 called dispatch and advised to strike a first alarm assignment they had a officer down. The crew then provided medical care while workers used a scissor jack lift to lower the injured officer to the ground. Engine 16-1 arrived on location established a water source for Engine 1-1 and started to make access to the catwalk. Unknown to the crew of Engine 16-1 the method in which the injuries to the officer of Engine 1-1 were sustained. Engine 16-1 had three firefighters of the catwalk when they opened the line again to wet the sawdust down. Again, a dust explosion occurred, enveloping two of the three members completely within the fire blast. The two firefighters fell to the deck where they laid waiting to be evacuated from the catwalk. The crew of Truck 16, with assistance from the remaining crews of Engine 1-1 and Engine 16-1, removed the injured acting officer and firefighter of Engine 16-1 from the catwalk. A ladder pipe was set up on Truck 16 and opened on the sawdust. Again, an explosion occurred but no firefighters were in harms way. Truck 16 then proceeded to flood the entire hopper with water. The additional weight of the water caused some of the dusting inside the building to fall from the ceiling. The hopper was opened at the bottom to release all contents. Crews cautiously approached the catwalk to wet down the hot spots with no incident. Two of the injured firefighters were treated and released from Peninsula Regional Medical Center's Emergency Room. The third firefighter was treated and transferred in stable condition to a burn center in Baltimore for overnight observation. Units responding were: E1-1, E16-1, E210, E1, TRK16, TRK74, R16, R74, AL2, PM2, PM16, PM16-1, PM16-2, AC1, DC1, DC2, Chief 1, and U16; and Multiple Moveups.

Stopped by the racetrack friday and took a walk around. Nice to see everyone working together, lots of different departments and equipment. Urban search and rescue, air bags, and more were all being used.
