    I've seen a few posts back someone was asking about our department (West Harrison) acquiring a new Seagrave. Yes, we are getting a new custom built 2016 Segrave engine, thanks to Hudson Valley Fire Equipment, LLC. It will be a straight engine, with no extrication tools. It will be replacing our 1992 Spart/Beck rig 267. Chief, and crew went out to Wisconsin over the weekend to finalize blue prints.I Will keep you guys updated. Here is our new baby, well at least on paper.

    West Harrison just purchased a new 2015 Tahoe (SSV) to replace 2501. The 2011 Tahoe (2501) is becoming 2502. Lighting and vinyl is being done by Hudson Valley Fire Equipment.

    Well all the departments you listed including Ossining are a 12-15 minute drive to Valhalla's station. It's not about speed and who is closest for relocations, it's how to balance all of the resources in the county. A relocation is not an emergency per se. It is better to skip over several departments so that wide gaps in coverage aren't created in the process. Hawthorne, Valhalla, North White Plains, Elmsford, Thornwood, and Briarcliff had units committed to this job during rush hour. Leaving TFD, SHFD, PHFD, WHFD, AFD, untouched meant that whichever company relocated to VFD would have had a full complement of second due departments nearby available to respond to another major incident.

    West Harrison (3.5 Miles) , and Armonk (6.2 Miles) and White Plains (3.5 Miles) Ossining (10.4 Miles) Tarrytown (5.3 Miles) Sleepy Hollow (6.1 Miles) Purchase (5.4 Miles) Port Chester (9.9 miles)

    Hey guys, I'm a member of the department. Yes there has been damage to the building, which is being addressed within the next few months. This damage to the building accrued when we let other departments train in the facility. None of the damage was reported to us. The damage was discovered later on, and with many departments training there it’s hard to place the blame. From here forward we no longer will let other department drill there, unless we have a crew of our own there supervising. We are one of the few to be lucky enough to have such a nice facility it’s sad that others did not respect it.

    Some photos from basement fire in West Harrison. Rain was real heavy at some points. Photos are not the greatest, even with the SLR.
