Was BN01 relocated, or were BN7, 6, 4, 2, 11, etc all unavailable? I'd think the 1st is pretty far down the run card for this area
 
I wonder what happened to Engine 26 normally they would have responded on the 10-77. Does anyone know where they were, perhaps at another box. Captain Bob Rainey FDNY Engine 26 retired

This dropping down thing is a misuse of the signal. Dropping down means more units were used, negating a 10-18. Should be used 2 engines, 1 truck or 1 engine, 2 trucks, etc. 10-18 is a specific signal. What “work” is given to the other units other that the 1st & 2nd due units when “dropping down” is use?
It’s either 10-18 or as I mentioned earlier.

Comments welcomed explanation if I’m wrong. Thanks.

You are 100% right about this dropping down BS...a total misnomer that has been used by some on & off for many years.....it has been discussed on many forums & Official Meetings but yet some continue to use it.
