This is eagan Station 1 off of rahn road. Given the date they are probably visiting block parties for national night out and if there was a call they would respond from there. Or they could be going to ABLE which is the fire facility they use to practice putting out fires. Its called ABLE because Apple Valley, Burnsville, Lakeville and Eagan all use this for their probationary firefighters and explorers posts.
that's eagan MINN my friend lives there i am guessing they went and did training when any fire dept dose something like that they have the towns around them standing by for mutual aid to cover the district they are closest to
All you people that say this is stupid to empty the station, they went a block down the road for training and only take items off of one truck would you rather have them show up at your house on fire or at a car crash you were just in and not know what the hell to do. This station is 1 off of rahn rd and I see trucks from every other station in this video except for station 3 off of pilot knob. Its not like there gonna go to training and turn off the radios when dispatch calls them out.
Seeing as how no one was in a rush and no lights/sirens tells me they were heading off to do a training exercise. I'm a firefighter, its not totally uncommon to empty a station. If they are going to do fire evolutions (Training Fires) they will have surrounding fire houses cover their area or in small towns they will have other communities covering their stations/town. Most other trainings the apparatus are available for response where ever they are.
Yeah, they came back. I have no idea exactly where they were going as I have no firefighting knowledge. However, I was told that they were doing a training exercise.
Seems so, but a couple summers ago, a house burned down in my neighborhood, and we had trucks from surrounding cities come too. I'm sure they time these trainings so that there are always fire departments standing by.
@KBilt92 alright I'll help set this straight, in my county st least, for a reported house fire, 5 full companies are called on first alarm, along with selected trucks from others, on every fire casll you will have multiple different stations, on every fire call up here, we have an average of 35 fire apparatus (or "trucks") on the scene of a working fire, I say apparatus, cause when you say "Truck" in the fire business, it means "Ladder truck"
@XxrotorayxX What's not smart about it, we do it all the time for training in the summer, if all the trucks are out, and we're doing an excersice, we're already out on the road. So what's the difference if they're in the station or out doing training with a bunch of firefighters?
@XxrotorayxX - That's kind of a stupid comment. If all the firefighters are in their trucks, why does it matter if they are not at the station? They can be dispatched and respond from wherever they might be.
@ArxVirtus what if there training involves taking all the hose off the trucks? or taking the rescue tools or rope rescue stuff off? it would take them a while to pack it all back up and move a truck. It would make more sense to leave a truck in station to respond to an emergency than have it take 5+ minutes to pack the truck and try to get there.
@XxrotorayxX - You enjoy flashing your stupidity around, don't you? What training would require firefighters to take all their equipment off every one of their trucks and go park them somewhere else? You have shit for brains.
@ArxVirtus it's funny, i never said that they would have to take all of the equipment off of every truck. i said specific things. Familiarizing a new firefighter would require them to take some pieces off the truck and use them or RIT training, most companies have a RIT tarp which could have 15+ major tools off a truck. Have you ever packed 2100 Ft of 5 inch? repacked a 150ft bag of rescue rope? put 50+ pieces of cribbing back? This stuff takes time, even with a few people.
@XxrotorayxX What the hell does that have to do with THIS video, moron? Try to stay on topic. This is not just ONE truck. This is - according to the description - the "entire fleet." Your original comment was "not very smart to empty the station for an exercise." Now you are talking about a completely different scenario where ONE truck has equipment removed for a specific training purpose.
You're just pulling nonsense out of your ass. Just give it up.
Oh, I see. Yes it was Eagan, on Rahn Road. I was hoping that the number of trucks would compensate for the lack of sirens and lights in terms of this video.

XxrotorayxX 2 years ago
Yea they usally tell other cities/towns that they will be gone and sometimes will send a engine to that fire station.
For the house fire, it was probably mutal aid where the fire is really big and they call for more trucks from the surrounding areas.
