Then who covers Queens & the Bronx?  Seems to me what they did makes the most sense. Any time you have 3 Rescue companies tied up at one incident, that means the other 2 are going to be stretched pretty thin . . . and it seems to me you'd want them located where they could respond best to anywhere in the city.  As for R6 . . . where would you get the manpower (without a recall)?

good points. For R6, I woulda thought of maybe getting some SOC guys from Roosevelt Isl and putting them on standby? I'm just curious is all.

  I recall reading somewhere that R4 was the 1st to be filled becaused they had good access to the whole city from their location near the BQE like HazMat 1 does. They're temporarily at E316 now.

  anyone know what this is??
 
A white Kenworth  tractor with a white trailer?  8) ::) 8)

Seriously . . . I'd guess some state or federal agency, given the lack of identifying decals. Or maybe some brand new NYPD ESU unit, so new they haven't had time to letter it?  But then, it seems to have NY license plates, which pretty much rules out NYPD or federal agencies (unless it's stealthy :o).


Maybe the mobile NSA listening post?  ;) ;)
 
1520hrs- Reports of NYPD Harbor recovering a body from the water. FDNY confirming to B-27.

1530hrs- NYPD Harbor 'George' bringing the recovered to Dyckman St.

The trailer looks very much like that of Rescue 3's former collapse rig.
