This is a hard rundown, very remote and undeveloped industrial part of the island - not close to many companies. A few of the companies on the rundown have a straight run on the West Shore EXPWY
 
That is a long run for L 84 as 1st due truck.  Huguenot to Travis.

L 86 and L 87 are closer. 
 
Yes it is pretty long, I'm almost positive 84 Truck and 168 Engine are 1st and 2nd due only because of their close proximity to the expressway. I believe 84 is first due to the sanitation plant just south of there. It sounded crazy at first to hear that but then made some sense given it's only a few minutes up the expressway. Could they be 2nd in after TL 86?  This box is  literally in the middle of  nowhere  ;)
 
I lived a few blocks from E 164/L 84.  They are not really close to the WS Expressway entrance and 7.1 miles (Mapquest) from the box location using the Expressway.  L 86 is only 3.1 miles by Mapquest.  I realize those are computer miles but it seems hard for L 84 to make up 4 miles by getting on the Expressway.  But I really don't know.  It's a long run for any truck company.
 
Box came in at 0530 am its a Bn 22 box not a Bn 23 box. The 23 goes on the 10-75.ladder 84 is in fact the second due truck to ladder 86 ladder 87 is the fast truck we ( engine 168) go third due first due in engine 154 followed by engine 166
