Chief,
The tornado video is quite awesome. I actually have quite an incite to this video as it occured in my town and I was the fire operations commander..... The thing most dont know is the car you see strike the locomotive was carrying Haz mat chems (Ethelyne Oxicide). The incident actually lasted 8 days. I have gone with UP (Union Pacific) as it was their rails the train was on and given lectures on this incident. If you have any question regarding it, please dont hesitate to get a hold of me, stay safe. Take care

CAMBRIA, N.Y. (WIVB) - A fire near the town of Wilson caused hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage, to one of the town's fire departments.
The Cambria Department caught on fire Monday afternoon.
Four of the station's trucks were damaged, one was completely lost and repairs could cost well over half a million dollars.
"I know our surrounding companies have offered equipment and firefighting gear so we can get back on our feet," said Shawn Mcintyre, Assistant Fire Chief
Two of the company's trucks were in substation and we undamaged.
Area residents will have their fire and emergency services covered by the Pekin and Wilson Fire Departments for the immediate future.
Dave- looks like you fellows had your hands full the other day at the hotel fire. Weather was not th best for playing in. Glad to hear no one was injuried. Too bad that was a great place
Dave, Your daughter is beautiful. I can't imagine what your family has been through over the years. I hope Brianna stays in remission until a cure is found. Good luck to you and best wishes.
Hey Dave, I hope the weather isn't to horrible up there. We had snow here on Saturday and Sunday and we had a structure fire on Saturday in -1 temps with windchill. That was fun. Water problems and all. I got to sit and listen from home, it sucks sometimes to have youngins that aren't old enough to watch themselves. Oh well, that will come in a couple more years. I will talk to you later hopefully... Stay safe... :o)
Two teenage girls were stricken with what was believed to be carbon monoxide poisoning early today at a West Seneca house, police said.
The girls, both 16, were having a sleep-over in a closed basement room that also contained a boiler. Someone checking on the girls about 8:30 a.m. found them unresponsive, said West Seneca police Lt. David L. Szmania.
The girls, one of whom lives in the home on Windmill Road, were being treated at Mercy Hospital. Their conditions were not immediately available.
National Fuel Gas workers found high carbon monoxide levels in the basement, Szmania said. The couple who own the home and their son also reported symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning and were being examined, but their conditions were not considered as serious.
