Be advised, at this time, FD has completely entered the tracks. If ESU wants to respond, I would advise them to respond to 161 at this time. 10-4, if you don't need us, we're on IEH. Yeah, that's a better decision. Go for it. FD's all over it. 10-4, read, thank you. No problem, thanks.

Yeah the conductor has every reason to go on workman’s comp if he’s injured. He probably damn near had a heart attack when it happened

Hhmm. Wow! That's not a branch. That looks like tree trunk. The Train Operator was lucky that those windows are thick. If not that could have been a runaway train. The FDNY Radio Transcrips says that she sustained a slight injury to the top of her head. Stay prayed up because you never know when your number is up. 🙏
