Seattle Fire Department Engine 25 and Ladder 10 responding to an automatic fire alarm at 412 11th Ave. at 1504 on 12/17/2008. Just before Engine 25 leaves the station, you can hear them kidding Ladder 10 that they’re going to be the first out of the barn even though they reached their apparatus after Ladder 10 did. Engine 25 went on 2,925 runs during 2007, making it the fourth busiest engine company in the SFD, behind E2, E28 and E31. Ladder 10 went on 1,693 runs in 2007, making it the second busiest truck company in the SFD, behind L4. A “reduced response” typically gets 1 Engine + 1 Ladder. A “2+1+1 response” gets 2 Engines + 1 Ladder + 1 Battalion Chief. A “full response” gets 4 to 5 Engines depending on the type of structure, 2 Ladders, 2 Battalion Chiefs, the Deputy Chief (Deputy 1), 1 Aid unit, 1 Medic unit, Air 9, Safety 2, and Staff 10. SFD averages ~2 full responses per day.
