I guess B54, E317 and L165 were not initially available. B54 is normally first due Chief and E317 and L165 are both normally second due.  G'man theory in operation!!

16:52
Box 5931 was transmitted for a gas odor at 249-35 145 Avenue Rosedale - B54 was given a 3 and 2 response with E317 third due on a 10-14. Upon arrival E314 transmitted a 10-20. At 16:56 E311 indicated they were using 2 and 1, B54 did not need to continue in and E314 would do the report. Neither did E317 need to continue in


The initial response to 5627 was for a 2 and 1 response - E304 and L133 were added to the initial alarm. E275 was 10-14.  So there were 2 10-14 Engines on the All Hands  

The All Hands was transmitted @17:00
