| Sayville Fire Department volunteers participated in a Long Island Rail Road mass casualty incident drill that included multi-agency response by Community Ambulance and several other ambulance companies, Sayville and West Sayville Fire Departments, Suffolk County Fire Rescue & Emergency Services, MTA Police and LIRR.
The scenario set was a passenger train just west of Sayville Station with its rear car on fire and dozens of victims inside and outside of the train. Sayville firefighters teamed up with West Sayville firefighters to search the smoke-filled railroad car for victims and bring them to the triage area. Just like at real alarms, Sayville firefighters worked seamlessly with their neighbors to get the job done. |
