4058 Merlin, Charlestown, Pa  | | Very large 2 story SFD with attached 2 car garage. Fire started in garage and extended into dwelling. Chief-61 requested the 2nd alarm on arrival. There were other special calls for add'l Engines & Tankers. An interior attack was first mounted, until the fire load became to intense to stay inside. Firefighters backed out and took to an exterior attack before re-entering the dwelling. The fire travelled from the garage, up the "D" wall into the dwelling & across the roof. Large embers from the cedar shake roof, started quite a large brush fire behind the home. They dropped over 2000' of 5" supply line from the tanker ops at the end of the driveway to the house. After the master stream ops were shut down, they had 6 handlines in service.
