That's a good run for 7 as the first due truck. From 29th to 63rd.

16 Truck normally first due along with 39, might of still been at the other AH box that came in under an hour before this one and went 10-8 after 39 did. The UES and these companies busy past few days.

Too long of a haul for the first due ladder if 7 indeed was coming from 29. No way they beat 13 truck who is about 15 blocks closer in if in quarters.

13: From 85th straight shot down Lexington, cut across at 64th to 2nd ave.
7: Up 3rd from 29th and then cut across 64th to second ave.

For 7 Truck it isn't only the distance.  Third Avenue from about 55th to 59th is almost constant gridlock because of traffic to the 59th Street Bridge; not as bad as it used to be, but still a real problem.
