As of now it has been at firematic since 11/28, was told they are backed up, so no idea when we will have it. Plus we have to wait for the Pierce trainer to train our members on the aerial, as there are only 6 trainers across the country.

We have 3 Stations. Our HQ (Company 2) is on Deer Park Road just north of the Northern State. Parkway  Station 1 (Company 3) is located on Deer Park Avenue south of the Long Island Expressway.  Station 2 (Company 1) [my firehouse] is located on Carlls Straight Path, also South of the Long Island Expressway. For those of you not familar with Dix Hills, when your traveling on the LIE, the overpass just west of the rest area is Carlls Straigth Path.  |

Station 1 has the spare bus in their quarters, and station 2 will be replacing their present 2-8-8 (peirce class A pumper) with the new quint....
