A classic Federal Q siren mounted directly to the cowl I see. Even a red cowl flasher on the operator's side of the rig. I could definitely hear those classic fire apparatus air horns blasting at that first intersection you guys came to. The oldest truck my fire department has so far is that 1980s Ford rescue truck, and it's since been taken out of service. I rode in that truck with a gentleman from my church and my dad. A classic left hand ignition rescue truck that Ford is!
I rode in a 1980s era Ford rescue truck from my church to the station cattycorner. The station's just up the street on the right side of the road if you're coming off of PA Route 654, and the left side of the road if you're coming up from River Road. If you're coming off of Bertin Heights, there's a road to your right called Johnson Drive. If you take a left turn off that road, you should see the fire station just in front of you.
She maybe old but she still has it were it counts. I love these old girls simple to operate and they are a solid design. What GPM/PSI is she set up with?
at about 2:07 mark, you can see the smoke up ahead. your adrenaline had to be kicking in when you all saw that.
