What about Truck 5?  Long run for second and third due companies.

Ladder 5 was probably there along with Sound Beach's Engine 51, but both are solely staffed by volunteers, so Ladder 5 might not have gotten out the door. Truck 1 is temporarily running out of Cos Cob but since its the only Truck in town staffed by a paid crew, it goes out on all structure fires in Greenwich. The Engines listed are also all staffed by paid guys. There were probably a couple more volunteer rigs at this fire, but I'm not sure which ones. I can only wager a guess on what paid rigs were there.

Any fire in Greenwich automatically gets 4 of the 6 paid Engines in town and the paid Truck assigned on the Box. Depending on where the fire is, volunteer rigs will respond as well.
 
Thanks for the info.  I have a brother who lives in Engine 5's first due area and his son was a volunteer at Station 5 several years ago.
