Yonkers Fire Satellite Training Center?

[Dr. Zuki 1]

Just happened to notice a small fenced in area mid-way down on west side of St. Casimir's Avenue that Yonkers Fire is using as a training center. It's a fenced in lot with abandonded cars that were likely used for extrication practice and staged fires.

How long has this place been in use anyway?

There is a small metal sign reading Yonkers Fire Training Center posted.

They also had alot up on Saw Mill River Rd with a sign like that. Same thing a bunch of old cars.. Never ever saw any FD units at the location, I think the signs are no longer there, I will have to take a look.

Where exactly on Saw Mill River Road?

Was it that lot on the right side underneath the unused Putnam Rail line overpass?

Thanks,

The yard on St. Casmirs is used for extrication & rescue training (no burns). The lot on Saw Mill is no longer used because someone complained (believe that?)
