Engine Company 3 is located in the eastern section of Carlstadt New Jersey in the Meadowlands industrial area. Years ago the membership consisted primarily of farmers who lived along Washington Avenue and in it's vicinity. They were always nearby when the alarm sounded. As development grew and the farms were all sold to make way for industry, the membership was drawn from "uptown" residents who blended in with the old-timers. The nickname "F-Troop" was developed along the way and the company now displays their cherished cannon at fire department functions. Our present apparatus is our new 2008 Pierce Velocity Pumper.
