Yea i always thought the quint was in that station, on the website it says it's housed there...

The Quint was out for servicing when the fire occurred. Saw the Engine the other day at Beacon Auto Body in Pennsauken. It has some work to be done. Hopefully they will be able to bring her back to life

Ya NYC burns up a station or two annually, gotta keep up with the older buildings.
