Most runs are done on the MDT's.  They will give out the box over the air if more then one unit is assigned, however you won't hear which units.  You would have to know the boxes to have an idea of who is going.

They have been getting a ton of CO runs, as far as EMS goes they did 1,640 in 2007 which is on the high side.

When the temp falls below XXF for XX amount of time, they staff it. Two FF's from the house will run it for the tour and go around to known hydrants and respond to jobs as needed.

Some recently suggested that it would be nice to take an old firehouse and make it into a working museum.  Having it setup to be the same as it was back in the day.  The museum has lot's of nice stuff and is in an old firehouse, but you don't get that old firehouse feel when you go there.
