 Are these the trucks you speak of?

Are those lights amber? They almost look red in these pics.

I would assume that they will try an find a new partner. While they may not need to run medevac calls, I assume they will still be running as a rescue helicopter doing hoist operations, since apparently the next closest equipped helicopter is NYPD. As far as I was aware, the mobile life crew members were trained in the hoist rescue, so that would mean that NYSP would need to add at least on additional crew member on the crew to operate the hoist, and in addition, I would think they'd want medical personel on a rescue helicopter.

NYPD is probably closest, but NJSP aviation is also capable of hoist operations on their new AW139's

Here is another one of their trucks today at Holy Name Hospital ER, Teaneck NJ.

Ed, it looks like Jersey Plates, I am not sure who has this though.....

It is definitely NJ plates. I see similar trucks to this on Rt 95 approaching the GWB. I'm not sure who operates it, but I have a feeling they run between Teterboro Airport and NYC pretty often.

This is a pic I took of Corolla's platform in June, 2007. Looks like it was called Platform 637 then, also looks like they've updated the lights on it since then.

Might be a stupid question, but after looking at the scene lights I am curious- Do the scene lights have to be positioned by hand or is there a remote to move them? I assume they are adjustable.

Here is a shot of it getting lifted....Scott

Here is another pic of it on the Hudson last July. I thought I posted this last summer, but I can't find the thread now.

Dropped off one of our engines at Ferrara in NJ this past Monday and took some pictures of the rear mounts that are getting their final touches. Beautiful trucks and extremely well planed and thought out.

I think you passed me on the way there, I was wondering where the Engine was going. I was in my patrol car sitting on the shoulder of the highway in NJ, I think you had a department utility truck with you too. Nice pics.

Sadly 2012 is off to a bad start also. What may be the first LODD occurred in Washington this morning at Mt. Ranier Park during a traffic stop.

You never know what you're stopping!

This was the 2nd LODD for 2012, a Sergeant in Puerto Rico was also shot and killed today, a horrible start to the new year. Stay safe!

The Officer Down Memorial Page is also reporting that he has passed.

RIP PO Crispin

NJ State Dept of Health runs a similar truck to assist the NJ EMS Task Force. Scott

Stay safe and never forget! Scott

Scott,

I would have no problem if you posted your photos in this thread.

Thanks Kurt. I am a police officer in NJ, and on 9/11/01, myself and 3 other officers from my PD went to Ground Zero just after both towers fell. I grabbed a disposable camera before going down there, these are the pics I took.

I also have photos from 9/11/01, I don't want to hijack this thread, I can post them here if you want or start a new thread. Stay safe out there!
