Happy New Year to you as well, Cap.

Cap, Thanks for your efforts and all the work you put into this "Firehouses Project". Seeing all the houses as you presented them, I've got to say the older houses have so much character. Thanks again Cap. Take care. Jim Boyle (aka 1261truckie)

Where was 42 Truck?

While I never met Lt. Gary Howard, his name means so much to the F.D.N.Y. and to those who follow the job. A true War Years Warrior who continued to give so much of himself even after that period. May he Rest in Peace (he has certainly earned it). May his family at home be comforted and enjoy...

TRAC@1854 & Signal73, Thank you for the information Gentlemen. Take care and Merry Christmas Jim (aka 1261truckie)

I know what the rundown says, but does 219 have a High Pressure engine?

Merry Christmas to all the members and their families.

Tie........1959/1960 Mack 85ft Tillers and/or early 1970's Seagrave Rearmounts.

He surely seems very pro troops. That was a well written piece. It's a shame he's gone. One hopes his successor is cut from the same mold.

Cap, Glad you were able to get a hold of the article. Take care, Jim

I saw it many times during the 60's heading South on Washington Ave, turning East on Eastern Parkway heading out to Brownsville or East New York.

Cap, If you have access to it, the WNYF First Issue of 1969 has a good article addressing your question. If you don't, maybe someone could post it here. Jim (aka 1261truckie)

May they continue to Rest in Peace.

Belated remembrance of history. The Brooklyn - Staten Island plane crash (December 16, 1960) and the Constellation fire (December 19, 1960). May those lost on those days continue to Rest in Peace. May those who were effected by and/or responded to these tragedies and who have passed also Rest in...

It's great to see these pieces of firefighting history preserved. The Superpumper was a very impressive unit to see in operation and the whole system was something else. I wonder if they will ever get a Satellite to go along with the Superpumper and Supertender.

May he Rest in Peace and may his family at home and on the Job be comforted. Another gone too soon. If I'm not mistaken, he was the 15th Division representative for the WNYF "All Hands" column for a while.

How are the other XR units doing with their respective Rescue units?

May those we lost that day continue to Rest in Peace. May we Never Forget their sacrifice.

Good choices. I'm also partial to 1970 - 1974 Seagrave rearmounts.
