[Guest]

The Jersey City stuff looks real good The pics look to be taken at Kennady Blvd and Sip aveone block west on Sip is home of Engine 15 & Ladder Alittle trvia for you the VIP diner is where some scenes in the soprano's were shot

[Guest]

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr Engine 15 and Ladder 9 are quartered at sip & garison aves in Jersey City Engine 18 & Ladder 2 are located downtown on Marin blvd

That is correct, however, Engine 6 is riding with E-18's rig because 18's firehouse at Ferry St and Central Ave is being renovated and Engine 6's truck is out of commission. Also Ladder 9 has a new rig sitting down at the shop, being set up with radios, it is similar if not exactly the same as Ladder 2. I will try to get some photos of it as soon as i see it

[Guest]

Engine 3's Current rig is a 1996 KME 65 foot Redi-Tower. This rig was delivered and getting equipt when it was PRESSED in to service for a 6 alarm fire. The off duty members of Engine 3 that were re-called staffed the engine so Trenton had all 4 ladders (3 Avtive - 1 reserve) and 3 Squrts (Engine 1, 10 and 3) operating along with a few volunteer units from outside the city at the fire.

[Guest]

Engine 5 was also closed down with Engine 2 and Ladder 3. When closed they company operated this 1991 KME engine.

[Guest]

Engien 7 operates with a 1995 KME engine. I should mention that all engines are 1000 gpm with 500 gallon tanks.
