New Collapse units completed.

[tbendick 27]

The three new Ferrara Collapse units have been completed. From what I understand they will be assigned as follows.

Collapse 1 @ Ladder 25 (Rescue 1's Collapse unit)

Collapse 2 @ Ladder 132 (Rescue 2's Collapse unit)

Collapse 4 @ ? (Rescue 4's Collapse unit)

Rescue 3 will remain with tractor.

Rescue 5 is a Hazmat Tech unit. So as of now no Collapse.

Awesome! I wonder if any will be at Harrisburg this weekend???

Maybe the new E-168 on SI will become a Squad with a collapse.....how's that for a rumor????

[JBE 328]

I doubt that. The CADS system is already updated for RC04. I would presume it's either going to go in the current firehouse behind E-292, or over to either 136 Truck or 163 Truck. RC02 is quartered at L-132 in Brooklyn.

If the new ones go to RC1, RC2, and RC4, then that leaves the TT unit that R3 will keep, and that leaves the 1991 Mack MR/ALF that is running as Collapse Rescue 1 now......maybe they will use it as a spare, or maybe an SI collapse unit??? One never knows..... :wink:

[JBE 328]

It'll probably be kept as a spare.

The only finishing touches that need to be made are the paint job. Blue and White :-P

Blue and White

I hope you are not trying to say that these should be NYPD units. Kelly hasn't taking over collapse yet, still FDNY's game..

[JBE 328]

And if the powers that be have any brains whatsoever, they will keep it that way.

One has to hope that not all of them are hooked up to a 24/7 Kool Aid IV.

Just a Joke.

The key word is YET.

He is a power hungry egomaniac. I'm sure he will try to snatch it from us.

I finally saw a better pic of one of the completed trucks on fdnytrucks.com. They look really good on a mack chassisand I like the led lights on them. The only thing I noticed which looked odd to me was on the rear wheel what looks to be almost a barrel looking item coming off what I belive is the center of the rim. Any idea what this is and why it's ont eh trucks

I think.....that it is a step for reaching the compartments...I've seen them on different delivery trucks.....
