The contract for the Collapse-Rescues is advertised in The City Record. It is for 7 trucks, based on 4-door commercial chassis. They will have PTO generators and air compressors.
The FDNY has issued a bid for 425 Type 2 van-based ambulances. These will be on either Ford Transit or Sprinters. This is a major change of policy. I dont know of any other major city that use them. They might be used for hospital to hospital transport, but 425 is too many.
The FDNY has new bids listed in The City Record:
x40 2000 GPM pumpers due 10/14-with option for High Pressure units.
x15 75" towers due 10/27 -with option for 95' ubits.
The 100+ retired trucks and engines that were stored in Maspeth at 58 St and 55 ave are gone. The entire yard is cleaned out. This includes the Buildings Unit. Does anyone know where they moved to???
