Great photos of the Marine Blessings ! A friend of mine attended this event last year and was trying to find out when it was this year as I was going to tag along with him but he never found out when it was. If someone keeps me in mind for a notification next year, it would be greatly appreciated ! Photofires@aol.com

The rear warning lights are a lot different from the initial shots. I really like the new large diameter discharges and intakes. And that they've continued the color coding. It seems like it really simplifies pumping.

I noticed the same about the rear warning lights. My guess is that the rear lightbars were eliminated because of a height issue. If you look at the new Bureau of Training pumper pics a few pages ago, there is a pic with a sign that says 10'8". In the pics of E-317, the sign says 10'6". A while back, one of the mechanics told me that they were going to have problems fitting in the older firehouses height-wise. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='  ' /> This change was probably to solve that issue.
Was able to get to the Brooklyn Navy Yard today to see the FDNY pump three of the new pumpers.
First up was the CTS rig.
Can you post vidoes or does it need to be uploaded to You tube first. Can some one help me wit this.
Thanks |
