Phoenix ladder companies are all two piece with the second piece being a utility type vehicle used for EMS runs. Concept has expanded to all ladder companies and now some engine companies also. It is also being adopted by more departments. In Willy's town, the proposal is to eliminate the...

Quints are all function, generic apparatus, with all purpose capabilities, but generally with staffing for one major function at a time. In addition to the many limitations of the apparatus, intensive training is desirable to have a fully adaptable crew for any potential task under short staff...

The original combination fire companies were three piece companies – steamer, hose wagon, and ladder truck. They were implemented as the initial career fire protection in developing residential neighborhoods previously served by volunteer companies. As the fire challenges grew with higher...

There is no direct statistical relationship between the number of building fires and the number of engine companies. Building fires are neither caused by nor prevented by engines. Fewer fires, needing fewer engines, is as true as, more engines will result in more fires. More engines may be...

70/53 have to travel over two miles before they even reach another company's first due area. Adjacent company second dues are all closer.

Try an office supply store such as Staples, FedEx, or Office Depot. Paper type, color or B&W, single or two-sided, and how many copies, all affect the price. Some of the local buff clubs offer printed copies as part of their membership dues. Local clubs and contacts are listed in the magazine...

Brooklyn engines were sent to Staten Island on occasion. In a 1963 example, Engine 284 moved to Engine 166. Using the 69th Street Ferry would make more sense than sending them via Manhattan or New Jersey. Pre VNB Staten Island running cards show Manhattan companies relocating to Staten Island...

Prior to the VNB, a 2nd (or 3rd?) alarm for the ferry terminal (in Manhattan) was transmitted for the boat ride to SI. Not only tillers, but two piece engine companies. Other option was through the tubes to Jersey City through Bayonne and across the Bayonne Bridge.

Battalions A frequent, recurring observation across the discussion threads is that Staten Island needs another battalion. While many determining factors have changed over the years in Staten Island and city-wide, the number of battalions remains unchanged. In fact, the number of battalions...

In 1985, 332 & 175 moved into a new house, taking 175 out of the 37. 176 was reassigned to the 37 which no longer had ladder companies. When 233 & 176 moved into their new house and 232 was disbanded, the 15 Division battalions were re-aligned.
