    I happened to drive past on my way to Highridge:

    That's right near Sq. 11, no?  Why were they not 1st due or on the assignment at all?

    Thanks

    Squad 11 was on another job when the Sadore Lane job was dispatched.

    I can win a flashlight??? By guessing how many posts were made in ONE day??? That's hard. But, if I don't guess correctly but have 100 posts I can still get a whole 49 cents off the cost of a friggin' disposable flashlight??? WOW!!! HOLY COW!!! Now that's an incentive to post like a madman!!! Golly gee winokers!!! 49 cents!!! For a flashlight!!!

    You should call this site EMTLoser.

    Seth, for your first kitbash you did quite well! Naturally, the first one is always the most difficult but I'm sure you learned quite a bit. I've bought a number of blank police vehicles and decaled them for various departments. I've also removed the pad printing on some Code 3 trucks and re-decaled them for FDNY and Mount Vernon Fire Dept. Ladder 2 just to name a few. Keep at it because if you did that well on your first, I can't wait to see your next project! Just a suggestion, check out policecarmodels.com and Roadblockers.net. They both have many decal sets for police, fire and EMS including striping which looks much better than tape or painted stripes. If you buy any decals, also buy the Microsol setting solution and your decals will look great. When I figure out how to post pictures, I'll post pictures of some of my projects so you can see and judge for yourself how a fully decaled police cruiser looks using decals. Also Seth, policecarmodels.com sells Tamiya clear red, clear amber and clear blue paint for painting the lightbars and they come out excellent. Take care and feel better.

    Hey,

    Can someone tell me where each Mount Vernon rig is housed on a regular basis? Not if one rig is O/O/S and they have to relocate until that rig comes back into service. Where they are originally housed. The reason I ask is im just trying to get more familiar with the apparatus locations.

    Thanks Alot

    Station 1 - E. Lincoln Ave.- Engine 6 and Ladder 2

    Station 2 - So. Fulton Ave.- Engine 5 and Rescue 1

    Station 3 - W. Third Street - Engine 3, Ladder 3 and Battalion

    Station 4 - Oak Street - Engine 2 and Engine 4

    Seth, you made the right decision to reopen the site. You have developed EMTBRAVO into a great website. You have worked very hard to accomplish this. I don't post too often, but I am on site 3 or 4 times a day. I can tell you that many of my fellow members at our volunteer ambulance corp. also think you have a great site. Remember one thing, no matter how hard you work at something, you will never please everyone. Don't let that get to you. The majority of the members are behind you. Thanks for your time, effort and everything you do!

    So, has anyone else who ordered this model received theirs yet?  What do you think of it?  I think they did a great job, considering what they had to work with.  Only wish they'd have added the front lettering. 

    Hopefully TFD is happy with the results.

    I recieved mine this morning and I agree that Code 3 did a great job on this piece. The front lettering would have made it that much nicer, but overall a great job.
