Collapse Rescue

[mkeit]

The contract for the Collapse-Rescues is advertised in The City Record. It is for 7 trucks, based on 4-door commercial chassis. They will have PTO generators and air compressors.

7 Squad 2nd Pieces? I think the numbers are wrong

 

[TLTruckie]

Is the bid for new collapse rescue rigs or squad’s second pieces ? The original post said collapse rigs . And if the bid is actually for squad second pieces ….i got ask ..where is Sq 1, 18 ,& 252 going to keep them ….because 4 door crew cabs won’t fit in their firehouses.

SQ18 fit a HMTU inside there house before, and I want to say SQ252 had the spare before and that’s longer

 

[TLTruckie]

I haven’t been in either of those firehouse in a while ….but from what I recall it’s very tight.

 

[NikFDNY]

Less then a foot or two of space inbetween Sq1 and the Second Piece

252's house is not that deep so I don't think a 2nd piece larger than the one they have now would make it

Anyone know the reason for 4-door cabs? Are they planning that if needed these could be stand alone units and not always be used with the parent company?

 

[jloonz]

are the squad strategically placed or can they be swapped out with other engines,ladder companies that have more room so they can house their second piece or a larger apparatus?

 

[Skyler Fire]

If squad 252 is the only one that can’t fit it they have the lot. Like SQ41

 

[airbusboeing]

252 has put the second piece in the lot before so if this new one is to big they can just keep it outside

They would give them a tent to put it in.

[crewsk111]

Possible they might be replacing the high rise units.
