Thanks! Depends what you're looking for. If you want to see some units go by with sirens, midtown is a pretty good bet on any day-- even if they're going to "junk" calls, there's so much traffic that they make a lot of noise and can't get by very quickly. Some houses are so busy you could probably just hang out nearby and catch them leaving without waiting long, although those are more in areas I don't know if you'd really want to be hanging around. You could download an inexpensive scanner app and keep it on so if anything big happens you'll know right away. I use Police Scanner 5-0, which was $5 when I got it but I think might be more now. Also the FireWire app is very useful, but sometimes things come through on a delay so you can't solely rely on it. But overall it's great.
For me, it’s E40 and L35 because they’re right in my neighborhood, followed by E74 and L25, then E54 and L4. You’d see whatever you’re closest to most often-though some houses are definitely busier than others, just getting more calls. Like I believe E53/L43 are particularly busy.
I still haven’t caught the super pumper-definitely want to! I see R1 a lot, Squad 18 and 41-I’m kinda on the border, if we go north for something it’s usually 41 and if south it’s 18. Battalion 9 & 11, and we’ll see MERV 1 and High Rise Unit 2 at 10-77s. I’d say what we’ve gotten most excited to find so far are the purple k’s and foam units in terms of rarity!
Really nice catches! Got any recommendations in Manhattan to catch some FDNY?

A new video from the queen of FDNY Special Units! My fav was 11:28 . The MERV is my favorite unit! Also, will there ever be an NYPD ESU compilation?👀
I love seeing MERV, too! I can definitely do an ESU compilation-my footage is finally labeled and organized so I can find everything.
11:02 the highrise unit horn almost sounds like a clown horn at first hehe
Yeah I think maybe it was in need of repair!
@@TripleJFire It needs a re-tuning BADLY lol
Haha yup! That was like 9 months ago so hopefully it’s fixed by now 😆
What’s the most commen engine and ladder truck to see?
