Why is a reserve engine active and responding to calls?

 

[Oh Bah Gahd]

Why is a reserve engine active and responding to calls?

Engine 525 is on Govenors Island and is staffed during the day on weekends.

Staffed day tour on the island with full crew responds on the island only

wow

Was probably assigned because they thought it was on the island. Once confirmed on land they were told to go 10-8

And in the old days the quickest box in the city for a dispatcher to transmit.

Interesting. I was wondering how a zero was rung out on the bells? Was it actually 10? For example box 1039. Would it be 1 bell, 10 bells, 3 bells and 9 bells?

I don't know it for a fact, but I think Queens box 9909 - Laburnum Avenue and Pidgeon Meadow Road - would be the street box in the city that would take the longest for a dispatcher to transmit.
There are some Pipeline boxes and other internal boxes that dispatchers may use - not street boxes - that would take longer.
