Thank you, Is engine 3 even frontline??? i know its new but i thought engine 3 was their spare/reserve unit.
 
I thought so too, but I guess it's frontline now. Since it's new and all, if 3's wasn't a frontline company, it would have most likely gone to Engine 4 or 1. I believe Hoboken's frontline consists of Engine 1, Engine 3?, Engine 4, Engine 5, Ladder 1, Ladder 2, Rescue 1, Rescue 1(Spare/Special Ops.), Haz-Mat. 1, and a Command Vehicle.

Great shots though. Off topic, but I'm sure North Hudson Regional Fire Rescue helped the HFD out with this job.

Jersey city,and North Hudson relocated. Hoboken handled it on there own. A fire broke out in west new york,nj at the same time it was a quick knock down. A friend was saying if the north hudson job went out of control where would the mutual aid come from, i joked around and said from across the river. New jersey was really busy today. I now Hoboken has 4 engines one begin a reserve, 3 ladders 1 begin a spare tiller, and the rest of the stuff you said.
