Usual response E52,81,79,62 L52,46 L37f L32 add'd R-3 Sq 61 Bn27 also wonder if this was a modified response due to it being a class 3 alarm, then upgrade upon 10-75 or phone calls, I will check on that.

The run came in for a Class 3 originating in the boiler room. 52 truck came from 234st/Broadway, while L46 happened to be rolling by Manhattan college parkway, and got in first.

Fire apartment was on 3rd floor. I dont know how the CL3 came in the way it did. For a few hours, the 52s was the busiest house in the Bronx this year!

Alarm was a class3 only no other calls, so all units except 1st due responded modified initially. L-46 had just left 52's after getting fuel and did arrive as 1st truck. Small mattress fire in room on 3rd floor. Response was E52,81,62,95 L52,46 37fast L32 add'l truck due to occupancy. Under control quickly special units turned around.
