On 315 we like to get cab time, and we routinely have two firemen in the cab. When needed we would help the guy on the shovel and push down the pile, taking turns passing and shoveling. Since last spring when we increased the water volume by moving the rear bunker wall foreword and adding a slope, we haven't had to worry about reaching the pile, in fact it now is harder to even get the pile back far enough to get the doors open to give us some room to shovel.
