Tough to ID this one but those are leather Subway straps on the rack above the back step. Anybody else remember them?

Driving that tiller must have been a lot of fun.

Yonkers 304/74 would be first due... About a half mile away😮‍💨

Actually, for the record, in ancient times (even before mac8146) neither the 52s nor 63/39 were assigned outside of Riverdale, Wakefield, nor Woodlawn, respectively, beyond the first alarm so this route was not an issue back then. It's why I asked the question to begin with.

Dude? LMAO

A pissin' contest!... Great, not much action in the Bronx lately... If 32 was in fact first due that makes it a G-Man Rule for 62.

Gun Hill? Well, maybe, ...why not? As you say, a long run. In ancient times the 52s never left Riverdale. I've noticed lately that they are now going into Wakefield so I guess the reverse is true also. Old maps used to have a Mosholu Avenue (not Parkway) cutting through Van cortlandt Park but I...

48/56 not in the mix?

75/33 initially out elsewhere?

Two sirens, the original chrome on top of the cab and I red Federal on the front bumper? Something is amiss with this photo...

Nah, just a shrug... What it's like growing up in the schoolyards of New York City.

DA' BRONX IS BURNING!

There's just not enough room on that street for cages for the truck and the battalian also. They'll probably wait until the dorms are completely refinished. My guess is that 79 went in there within the last week if you follow the response patterns. If they are back on Briggs and responding it'll...

A doily?

In ancient days (1960's), before there was a L58 and 46/27 were still on E176St., it was house pride for L38 to fly down Southern boulevard and beat L31 into this box. Just a memory.

What does that mean?

Engine 91-2 not organized until 1968 in East Harlem.

Great post Cap.
