ALBANY COUNTY FIRE APPARATUS
This is the official countywide numbering system. Different number systems are used by each dispatch center. Each department's local dispatch center and number is in parentheses. Departments with no center listed do their own dispatching.

Albany County Sheriff Call Signs
To complicate a call sign system that can only be described as "a mess": As the department transitions from 3 digits to 4 digits current/former 3 digit units will begin to identify with a preceding "3", this is especially true for patrol supervisors. Some units belonging to the Fire Coordinator's Office will use a "4" instead. This is also the case for some Emergency Management units which can't seem to figure out how they want to identify (i.e. the conflict between "3712" and "4950" [confirmed as an Emergency Management unit, not Fire Coordinator's office]).
