Ladder 1, Medic, Squad 1 dispatched to a subway construction site. In a recent attempt to deter traffic problems, Phoxlind has began expanding it's primative subway to include the East Phoxlind area, and also run an above ground train into New Phoxlind once it is completed (West of map boundaries) Austin Trulit station while under construction has filled with smoke. The terminal is still contained to just the terminal at this point, and no trains, tunnels, or civilians are down there. Approximately 17 workers were on scene at the time of the call. Hutchison off of RA1 will be acting OSC as a field exam.

"EMS-1 to central, we can take that."

*I get up, walk to EMS 1 and head to the subway station*

"Copy, Marking M-1 as responding"

"Squad 1 responding" I say and pull on my gear.

*I run to the cab, put on my boots, throw my jacket on the seat and helmet on the dash, and start the squad. I hear Raven give the command, so I put it in drive and pull out. I turn on the lights and rev up the Q as we pull onto the highway.*

(will hutch be responding on RA 1 or the ladder?)

"Ladder 1 Enroute to Austin Subway Tunnel, Reference Smoke in the area."
