Man, the Menands Sutphen lighting package & the Amsterdame R1 center console can use some serious TLC & touching up. I def love the striping package on Car 32-0.

The Sutphen does have upgraded lighting.... It has 2 Whelen L32 Beacons underneath the bucket, haha. I think it looks fine, especially with it being original. As for the Amsterdam rescue, the installer isn't the best so everything about the vehicle sucks, haha.

Is The TFD Medic lightbar recycled from a previous unit? Everything else seems to be new (whelen LEDs, newer E-series chassis), but it looks like an older halogen bar on top (unless my eyes are deceiving me)

 

[lafd55]

The previous Medic 4 had one so I will guess that it's recycled.

That colonie squad has a nice blinkie package!


How does the special ops/flight medic unit work...operate as a normal medic unit until a department requires air rescue (in which case they go back to the hangar & hop on the chopper)?

Pretty much, they also respond to Echo Responses(Cardiac Arrests). They are not always available during the day for flight missions. Here in Albany we have LifeNet out of Albany Medical Center and Lifeguard 12 which is the NYSP Medavac, Colonie operates with the SP and the SP is available until 11PMish.

No, they get to the chopper!


(and this is what happens if they are in the kitchen when they get a call) Skip ahead to 2 min 20 seconds..

I love the older Dodge Forest Ranger truck in red livery. Some of the rangers back home lamented the loss of their red trucks as the agency merged more with the DEC and has taken on more of a law enforcement role versus being firefighters.

I wish the Town of Colonie EMS ambulances weren't split failing for a living, they are otherwise very sharp looking.

 

[pdk9]

Shaker Road has a nice, pretty new fleet. The only thing I don't like is how they have red rims (I hate painted rims, no matter what color, & think that chrome looks so much better) and that they don't have side warning on the side of the cab (ie a lighthead between the 1st and 2nd row cab doors)

Yea, it's a pain to look at, if only they were solid lightheads it would be ok.

The NYS DOH vehicles, are they just plain gov. fleet fords, or are they interceptors with a basic lighting package?

Here Career Departments have Rescues as ALS Flycars or Ambulance with "Rescue Squad" being the heavier rescues.

The DOH-EMS vehicles have very basic lighting, most I have seen have had a single Fire-Beam on the dash and maybe corner strobes or LAWs and have sirens.
