Yeah, normal response is E275, E298, E301, L133, TL127, BC50. But why was E308 in there, where were the other neighboring engines? ???

There were some other boxes in the area out - don't know exactly know where all the Engines were -virtually every truck was working in eastern Queens - Note TL124 was acting TL127 and didn't go back to Brooklyn until after 9pm.
