Nice rundown of the units ! Good to see that they added a second fully equipted squad to the inventory, with the new squads they must have had a sufficent amount of spares, I think the last bad storm when you they put 800 in service on Staten Island they ended up running with one of the reserve engines. In addition to the scuba unit they also have at least one of the scuba/swift water rescue trucks and they also added a medical Equiptment POD, they were both at the display they put on with the Equiptment purchase from Sandy funds, second skid steer, high water trucks, the swift water double boat trailers, light towers and they had a high volume pumping unit (both pods that make up one unit, the pump and the Equiptment supply pod that carries all the LDH hose and fittings which is more like a rack body truck body than the standard pods) there as well even though it had been bought previously

I am imagining the battery operated rail carts as something like a battery operated pallet jack.  Can anyone provide pictures or a better way for me to understand this type of tool??

Are Reserve Units different then "spares"?

Looks like no marine Reserve Unit or spare fireboat?

Yes, reserve units are apparatus that are store fully equipped and read to be staffed when a recall is order or staffed for mayor events.
Engine reserve rigs are numbered in the 500's , trucks are in the 700 and squad is 800 and rescue is R6 .
Spares are just that , used when a first line rig goes OOS , no equipment on then , the company must unload their normally assinged rig that is going OOS and transfer all the equipment onto the spare .Usually takes several hours and the all the equipment never fits the same on the spare.

You are on the right track.  They actually fit on the rails and ride on them they used for transport of equipment to the scene of an incident from the closest access point for vehicles.  They are used for such things as subway incidents away from stations, train crashes etc.  The battery system powers their travel.

Unlike the human driven onws that are on the back of some of the engine co., and I bet they can handle morebweight because it's got to be hard to push the human driven ones down the tracks, yes??  And thanks Bull Dog, for the help

The smaller one is the "Nolan cart" carried on the rear of some engine companies.  Here's a pic:

I believe it's the Nolan Company's model TS-1-116B, as shown here:
