I need a spotters guide for the older E\-One chassis. What is the difference in the two cabs?

The Hurricane cab is low-profile compared to the Cyclone. The easiest way to see this is by looking at the distance between the top of the cab door and the drip rail above it. If it is a few inches, it's a Cyclone, as this one is. If it's only about a half-inch, it's a Hurricane. The cab face on a Hurricane is shorter between the windshield and the bumper, but that is difficult to see unless you have a Cyclone sitting next to it.

This unit is staffed by the 4th firefighter from Engine 1 or Truck 1 and responds to all working fires for rehab/SCBA bottle re-fills. If both E1 and T1 are on the assignment already, the next closest company will pick it up.

The truck itself carries just carries extra bottles; AR-1 will also tow an enclosed trailer which has a cascade system/compressor if needed.

Engine 3 got HS-5082. I will email you a current WSFD Sutphen roster. The problem with keeping up a roster for WSFD is they are constantly moving rigs. Historically, the department will replace E1,3,4 & 6 every 3-4 years since these companies are the busiest in the city. The slower companies will then get 1,3,4 or 6's hand-me-down rig.

I have found a few photos of the remains of the station and it contained an International Fleetstar and a Ford C, along with what appears to be a pumper with a four-door cab, none of which were there back when we visited. My condolences to their membership.
