Not much fire, but since I froze my butt off taking em, might as well post em.

What was up with the traffic driving over the 5 inch?

Morning commuters nothing can stop them, nor get in their way. We are nothing more than obstacle course to them. Actually after taking this photo, made me think perhaps the hydrant kit should include some cones, or perhaps flares. Spike strips would be the best but would rather have the driver have control over the car as they are barreling down on you.

Nice pics Fishkill was there as Fast team and Arlington covered for Wappingers ladder being out correct??????

That is a normal response for Village of Wappingers with New Hamburg responding with a engine. Either Rombout or Arlington's Ladder would respond because, Village of Wappingers and New Hamburg Ladders are out of service. Also Village of Fishkill is the nearest FAST Team.

Real Estate sign in front of house?

Real Estate sign in front of house?

Yes that is a for sale sign, same as the sign on the house on the left. The house on the left has been on the market for 4-5 years now. I think this house just recently went on the market. Mobile Life did transport one.

Do you know what stage the fire is at?

Fire was in overhaul at this stage.

Hahahhaaaa

No doubt a great job by the aggressive brothers in the Village....

Obviously an effective use of mutual aid to ensure firefighter safety.

is that UVFD hooking to a hydrant (sorry Rich) oh no thats a real school bus

[Danger 160]

Whats with all the mutual aid questions? 3 Engines, Truck, Rescue, FAST. Seems like a pretty reasonable assignment for the size of the building.

Joe, I heard the 5" was jumping out in front of Hyundais again just like on Mesier

Nice shots, glad you shared them, man I love the look of the Village of Fishkill ladder, great color scheme.

[Guest]

nice shots indeed

[JetPhoto 626]

Thanks for the shots.

Maybe a copy of the bus driving over the 5" should be sent to the Wappingers Transportation Dept....

Just out of curiosity, where was that guy from Arlington going on the aerial that he couldn't get to via portable ladder??

F.Y.I Fishkill is not the nearest fast team Hughsonville is 1/2 mile down the road but some Dept's. call 2 companys away for a fast team and the neighboring company's to the fire if big enough or to relocate.

Would New Hamburgs FAST Team be closer then Village of Fishkills also?
