I was headed over to Paidge Ave to see if they had any rigs parked outside. I was on Greenpoint and took a right onto Provost and saw some smoke coming over the fence at a scrap yard. I figured maybe someone started a truck but the smoke got thicker and darker so I pulled over and grabbed the...

I was in town for the Bell Club meeting and grabbed some pics at the scene. Brooklyn Subway gallery

Here's a question. I noticed for the Brooklyn subway job they used box 7032 but there is no 7032 in the listings I found. Does each station have it's own box? Is there a list of those? I found box 1450 which is for 4th and 36th which is an ERS box

Couple of pics. Got there about 30 minutes after they transmitted the 3rd and didn't see anything. Good stop.

Great work as always!

I took the chance at an hour long ride to buff this job. While I didn't see any fire when I first got there I was able to grab some good shots. Also to note this was District Chief Paul Carey's last fire. He retired this morning after 41 years of service he had told me. Boston 6th Alarm Photos

If there is an incident on the island now they'd have to ferry everyone over by boat. Boston Fire has a large boat and a small boat. Same for Logan Airport They have a large and small boat and work together with Boston all the time.

That I don't know. Problem with the bridge is although the island is part of Boston and to get there you had to drive thru Quincy and Quincy doesn't want the bridge rebuilt.

They use the pump for details on the mainland now. I've also heard rumors they were going to reopen the shelter due to the large homeless population in the city.

The island is abandoned now. They knocked the bridge down. They took the pump off the island before the bridge came down but the maxim mid mount ladder is still in the fire house. Here's a cool video of the island some urban explorers shot last year. you can see the firehouse and Maxim at 9:18

From what I have heard is Division 1 has been using it for a bit now. It's Division 2 that it's new for.

Just curious do all FDNY members have to be retired to get on getting salty? Was just curious if they have it in the contract that they can't speak publicly while employed by the department. My department has that stipulation.

I believe he was a guest speaker at a Boston Sparks meeting not too long ago.
