Really nice shot! You have a great talent for photography. Enhanced picture??? You mean to tell me that Poughkeepsie is not bright and vibrant?

I hope the Lt and FF have a speed yrecovery. Thoughts and prayers are with the families. Luckily everyone escaped the explosion with only injuries. Stay safe...

Thanks for changing it. FYI the change has not been applied to Protection From The Past or Rockland/Orange County I/A's.

Agreed. I had discussed this over the weekend with FDNY 10-75. He said he would talk to Seth about the new posts taking up all the space. Hopefully, the bugs are all worked out.

Great shots, thanks again for posting.

Nice shots and looks like a great stop by MKFD! Not much room about Ossining's ladder in the last pic. Looks like a few inches of clearance at the most.

Incredible shots as always. Thanks for posting! Nice work by EFFD.

Nice shots. ANyone know the cause of the fire?

When PVAC moved this pst summer, we left the chains in the old building someone so we just bought new chains for 7602. Did not know E259 and E260 had On Spots. We still put regular chains on them for bad snow.

Pleasantville VAC has on-spot chains on all ambulance. We just purchased a new set of chains for our designated first due snow bus 7602. Pleasantville FD has on-spot chains on R47 and E91. We put regular chains on them anyways in any snow over 3 inches about. I do not believe T5, E259, or E260 have on-spots. We put chains on them when needed. On-spot chains are terrible in any real snow accumulation...waste of money IMO.

Has any one tried to get chains for the new rigs? It is a very cheap safety measure that is easy to deploy. I do not see why any department would not want chains of some sort on their apparatus.

What are people opinions of the new season?

I thought the actually show was informative. That plant is an amazing place. Almost as amazing as the hard work and attention to detail that goes into making a Pierce fire apparatus. Props to the artist who do the lettering and such. Amazing to see that the outlines are hand painted. Keep up the exceptional work Pierce!
