A emergency truck aka "trucks" are not called out untill needed.
The radio emergency patrol trucks patrol the streets answering first.If the rescue can not be handled with the equipment on there,or the situation is bigger,they will call out the truck
this specialized mack and sulsbury body rescue carries two set of hurst tools aka "jaws of life", saws,jack hammers,air bags,a small arsenal,everything that is needed for a major technical rescue of heavy tactical situation
Actually, I think there is a mechanical siren of the front bumper, but it's deffinately not a Q... it's proboby something like a Model 28, they're accepted. If you look close enough, you can see the siren on the front bumper.
With regards to vehicle rescue, how is ESU dispatched? Does FDNY not handle all vehicle rescue? If there were an MVA with entrapment in the city, who would be dispatched and who would have rescue/extrication command?
Same sort of question as well with this video...why would ESU go to a cO emergency? Wouldn't FDNY be dispatched as well. More or less, Im curious how ESU and FDNY interact on an SOP/Protocol level when it comes to calls that they are both trained to handle.
not 100% sure but both are generally dispatched to a mva but since pd is on the road more often they beat out the fdny and the esu will beat out any rescue.
If i rember this call fdny was dipatched for a engine and truck to the scene but there were bone fragments found in the house so that was the need for esu. But anyway in NYC nypd is the lead agency for hazmat which a co emergency is in ny so nypd will be on the scene first.
Ok, This is it. From the photo's shared by Anesti and the 3 bolt pattern left in the extended bumper from another photo found on google.. The siren been removed.
The siren is a Timber wolf. I cringe just typing the words. It all makes sense now.
p.s.s.. Sorry guys but this is bugging me. I looked at the photo of ESU 4 a little closer.. Something that you can see in the video has been removed from the photo of March '08. There are still 3 bolts sticking out of the extended front bumper on the officers side beside the blue federal pod light. Any ideas now??
p.s. At 00:14 there is something on the extended front bumper (more on the officers side) that I did'nt see in the photo. It looks siren like? Any ideas guys?
I'm afraid your correct. I found very close up photo of this apparatus from March 5/08. There is no electro mechanical siren any where on the front of this beast.. Only the new style electric F chrome plate that goes over a siren speaker. So, yeah it has to be an eQ2b. I'm surprised that NYPD is using an eQ.. Unless the NYPD and FDNY are still in that ongoing pissing match with each other? Then it makes perfect sense..
The siren is a Federal Signal Pulsator model P660 that was used on NYPD cars of the 1960's through 1972. ESU is the only units that still have some on the units, they are very rare. But I have one that I have had since around 1979
I knew you would bring that up. Leave the heros out of this. You make a comment about NYPD, and when you get one back, you bring up those that gave the ultimate sacrifice. God Bless their families, but you ? - Dont use them to further your comment. Shame on you. Plenty of NYPD have given their lives for this ungrateful city too.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I seen the FDNY go a whole lot faster.Once i was setting a home and i heard the The bravest asking for the NYPD the showed yup 30 minutes later the FDNY had to go do crowed control.
Hate to tell ya, but plenty of overlap, as the E-men also go to technical rescues, collapses, pin jobs, man under train, SCUBA, and any other high profile job where their pictures can be taken for the newspaper, along with the conventional SWAT jobs.
Lol thinks it a fire truck wit the eq!
