    How does North Hudson Regional run their squads? I've seen they have quite the mix of apparatus used by squad companies.

    Squad 7 is the only unit that’s has a Quint in use in fact a 100 foot aerial on it The rest are Pumpers  they are used as RIT Units & Can respond along with the Rescue company on select calls  Lol every other unit’s a Squad down there

    As an add on to "bad box" comment. Last month FDNY put another squad into service. It's Squad 8 on Staten Island. It's in the quarters of E154. E154 was disbanded when Squad 8 went into service. FDNY now has a total of 8 squads. As eluded to in most of these responses, FDNY squads are enhanced engine companies. They run with an engine and carry a full-assortment of extrication and rescue equipment. Each squad has a 2nd Piece called a Haz-Mat Tech unit. Whenever there is Haz-Mat call anywhere in the city, a squad (with their second piece), Haz-Mat Company 1, and the Haz-Mat Battalion are assigned. Manning on the FDNY squads is 6 (1 officer & 5 firefighters).

    Excellent concept plus Riding Heavy (more then 4 people)is good too

  3. Englewood Cliffs EC-2 is a Rescue Pumper It’s ID is a Engine  It has all the equipment for auto accidents  plus Venting & chain saws I am surprised They never wanted it identified as a Squad There’s quite a few towns in Bergen County that run Squad’s as well Dumont Squad 1 Oradell Squad 22 & Fort Lee Squad 6  are some of the Units That I. Know of

    The truck was purchased by the grandson of a charter member. The charter member was instrutmental in the purchase of this truck back in 1982.

    So it's nice to see that the  truck remains in the family and it will stay local.

    That’s Great to hear beautiful piece
