Hopefully the Ex Chief will provide a full rundown

Would seem to be a strange location where the first four engine companies ( 217, 218, 230, and 237) are all single engine firehouses.

[guitarman314]

 Yes, someone asked why do truck companies (108, 111, 112, 176) in that area have such high OSW numbers and that is the reason.

[ten75]

VERY CLOSE BOX BETWEEN 217 AND 230 NOT SURE WHO IS REALLY 1ST DUE BUT THE 10-75 WAS GIVEN BY E217

E217 E230 E218 E216
L108 L111 L112(FT)
E222 L102 ADL UNITS ON ALL HANDS

2-2
E271 E277 E229
L119

[Bigandy]

I asked that    JohnD crazy location was right, every surrounding company was an engine, 3 engines in first? One musta did a search, maybe even broke a few windows

[guitarman314]

My book says normal response is: E217, E230, E218, L108, L102, BC35
