Curious to know if any companies went to work at fires while what was ongoing at the WTC was continuing to happen. I don't remember where but I saw photos of either a Jersey or Upstate/Connecticut Dept working along side Bronx Companies.

It was either Little Ferry or Teterboro that was working in Bklyn, one of there Ladders couldn't go under the elevated. SQ270 caught a run before the recall to. Turned out to be a 10-92 (I don't think 10-92 applies to bomb threats but either way it was a false alarm).

Those rigs were mainly manned by recall members coming in to their respective stations after the main rigs had left. I don’t believe any were acting as spares. As for reserve ladders, I don’t believe any responded to the Trade Center that day, though I could be wrong.

Nice list. Only issue is that Rescue 3 had the only collapse unit in the city at the time, other collapse units were implemented after 9/11. Also, what was your source for these? I like the data.

Images and videos are my main source. Are you sure R3 is the only one with a collapse rig? I might be mistaking HazMat Division rigs for collapse rigs.

Back in the day each rescue had its own capability, at the time R3 was collaspe. R2/R4??orR1 was Dive. But all the rescues had Collapse units between 1988 and the present.

I have made a map of emergency vehicles on scene at the time of 9:59 AM and included a image of it. It is still W.I.P and probably only covers 40% of the units on scene, sources are all videos and images. If you notice anything wrong with the map let me know. (SOME IMAGES ARE STOCK IMAGES IF I COULDN'T GET A GOOD ANGLE OR TAKEN ON A DATE BEFORE 9/11)

This is a map of all emergency vehicles on 9/11 in NYC at the time of 9:59 (The first collapse) this map does not count the vehicles that came and left before the collapse or those that arrived after the south tower collapse. If you see any errors please contact me via email: nhryanb23@gmail.com

The photo of Engine 65 is the wrong apparatus. This rig replaced E-65 for a brief period until they got their High Pressure Rig. This rig went to Engine 265.
