I am curious about the DC Reserve Engines. I imagine whichever company is using one still goes by their normal radio designator? If that is the case, has it ever caused confusion on a large incident fireground to see an "Engine Co. 87" that is actually running as Engine Co. 30 (just as an example)? Thanks!

Yes, companies do retain their numbers. In this January 2010 photo for example, one would say Engine 14 is on the plug with Engine 22 in the background.
