I would assume they just pump the concentrate to the Engines. The fan is probably to be used for a high-expansion foam operation

If the parent Rescue Company is unavailable and a box comes in requiring the Collapse Rescue respond does the closest one respond or do they only respond along with the parent company? Like if R4 is unavailable and a response is needed in Queens and its R2 and R3 going does L116 still transport...

When a secondary unit like a satellite or collapse rescue or purple K etc gets a run does it count as a run for the transport company also? Like does it count for the engine and the satellite?

Just went to a 3rd alarm

Thank you so much for sharing all your stories Dan. It certainly has been a pleasure to read them and in some ways it allowed a firefighter from Canada to be right there witnessing the FDNY at work when I would imagine the imagery you described so well. You have been a fantastic addition to this...

We are all wondering when YOU will be on Chief

The foam tender is gone? For good? Since when?

Looking forward to the show, its going to be great!

292 is probably on the street somewhere. I assume they have both rescue rigs inside for looking over the new one, comparing them, familiarizing etc. I think the one in 292 bay is the new one

In Canada there is only two tillers, in the whole country!!!! Always fun to see one when I am visiting a US city that has them.

Hello everyone, I looked through the operational reference guide and did a search on this site but couldn't find what I was looking for. Does anyone know which engines carry a high-rise nozzle or where a list is I could access? Thanks everyone!

This thread is amazing, thanks so much for all the memories of your career it sure is a real pleasure to read along!!

Hey JohnnyGage thanks again for the awesome ongoing stories from your career, it sure has been fun to read and imagine them from back in the day. I am curious when DCFD went away from the two-piece Engine concept...or are they still running that way today?

How many Mask Service Units are there? I assume they are manned by one FF and I think they respond on a 3rd or 4th alarm?

Amazing how much the dollar difference adds to apparatus purchases. We just took delivery of 13 new pumps all at $1.4M each CAD

As far as I understand the Rescue Battalion is the Chief for the 5 rescue companies. Is the RB also responsible for the 7/8 Squads or are they still part of their geographical Battalion?

Battalion10Buff's reply has a picture of a HMTU from E-44 that is a Ferrara Custom Cab and not a freightliner

The HMTU looks a little short to be an engine chassis. Enough room for a pump panel and compartment between the cab and the rear axle?
