The brothers and sisters in Cambria,New York are taking an inventory of thier loses after a fire ripped thru the main firestaion. The fire appearently started in thier Engine 2, and caused damage to the quint and ambulance stationed in the same building. this is happening as of right now and further info will follow.

Update: The fire appears to have started and did the most damage to Cambria's Engine 2. Althought the aeriel did suffer heat damage and there is damage to the ambulance, the company is in service tonight. Apparatus has been shifted around from substations, and with some mutual aid assistance they are up and running. The crews will have some work to do with the station, but all in all this could have been much worse, and thank God, no one was injuried or killed in this incident. I know they have refused at this time any equipment from the surrounding departments. Kudos to the crews who took care of this incident.
