Engine 31-2 responded with a crew of five led by Chief Supplee and Past Chief J. Supplee chaufering. While enroute to Station 38 the units were advised by the 911 center of an auto accident on the Route 30 Bypass West of Reeceville Road.
Units made the response along with West Bradford Chief Buttner and were advised that there was a two vehicle accident with unknown injuries. Engine 31-2 and Engine 39-3 responded from seperate ends of the bypass but were not able to find anything. Chief 39 then recalled the assignment and all units went to Station 38 to finish the standby.

A couple hours later Thorndale units returned to their station and the 31 and 39 units assisted with cleaning up of their apparatus. Deputy Chief Taylor of the Thorndale Fire Company arrived back at Station 38 and returned Engine 31-2.
