That's the first time I've seen the longer cab used on a non PUC model.

I found out today that Engine 35 will soon be assigned to Station 22 on a

permanent basis. Engine 35 has been there for the past few months due to the call

volume. Engine 35 will be assigned another unit number, but what that number will be

is not known at the present time.

Safety 1 is a 2005 not a 2008.

That sounds about right. Austin had alloted for 5 new engines this year. Thanks for the update!!!

[chief60]

I will check and see if there is a fourth chassis here tomorrow. They are very nice trucks but they aren't Quantums!
