  • That's not a Federal Q, boys.  It's a B&M/Siro-Drift Super-Chief.

  • I thought the use of real Q2B sirens was prohibited in NY?

  • nice q siren

  • Now THAT'S a Federal Q!

  • There was these kids that pulled a fire alarm 7 times on day at school. They were caught on the 8th attempt, and are now serving 400 hours of community service, explusion, and i think its a felony too.

  • @paraawesome Explusion? ROFL!

  • @04smallmj meens to get expeled.

  • @paraawesome not only a felony, but I think there's a pretty hefty fine as well. Possibly multiple counts in their case.

  • using 3 and 2 is usual for a 10-75 a fire. but most of these fire alarms arent related to fire.. a lot of bs alarms.

  • damn, fdny with a real q! hell yea.

  • It's not a Q siren It's a Federal Model 28. Ya, can see it on the extended front bumper. Same idea though.

  • Pimp as hell

  • thats the first fdny engine ive ever seen with a real q siren

  • haha you stupid kids and your lights and sirens. you'll grow up one day....maybe. until then... signed, veteran fireman.

  • dude you take your camera to school!

  • no it was during summer camp and the alarm went off we didnt know why so they didnt cancel the fd from reponding, i took out my radio and started filming when i heard them nearby

  • what happen?

  • a fire alarm went off and they couldnt get it to turn off and they couldnt locate the cause for the alarm

  • dude that happened at my school. My school is across the road form the FD station and the alarm wnet off. we got out side and he the alarm at the station going off. The trucks came got suited up back in the engines and left. Turned out a teacher burnt her bagel. lol

  • Was that a Q2B or an eQ2b?

  • Federal Model 28. If you search out this Engine in other youtube video's you can see it on the extended front bumper. Also if the owner of this clip would delete this video and re-upload it..WE could all watch it in high quality!! That would be awesome!

  • then why does one of my neighboring departments have a seagrave with a q installed? it was on the specs and was installed by seagrave

  • Sorry Q with Wail just doesn't cut it ("Where was the ambulance? I hear and I see a fire truck but I also hear an ambulance.  Oh, both sounds were coming from the fire truck? Gee that sounds wierd!!!")

  • Dept. of Corrections: I know it isn't a Q on the rig but a smaller siren (maybe a 28?) and I was trying to illustrate what most motorists would be thinking.

  • Q's are typically run with another siren. Now it is normally a Power call. But 8 out of ten trucks will run another siren with their Q or electronic Q.

  • Sorry I should have mentioned this earlier, Q with YELP motorists will still identify with one vehicle as a siren and an alarm, while Q with WAIL people will identify with two vehicles.

  • shit, all you needed was an extra engine, rescue, squad, and a BC and you got yourself a box alarm. Seems a little over done for an alarm. But then again, we do the same thing for occupied schools, so i guess its valid.

  • You prolly pulled the fire alarm to be able to tape the response.

  • lol hahahahaha

  • i would. But now our schools have ink sprayers. Get inked if you pull it.

  • If there was a fire and i pulled it and got inked, I'd be a little more than pissed.

  • Yeah if there was actually a fire. Cause you can't get that stuff off.

  • lmao fire ahhh. no dont pull the fire alarm youll get inked LMAO

  • that seems kind of dangerous...i know people who wouldnt pull it if the school was on fire just for that lol!

  • NRFDTL11Buff2, so if the FDNY drills holes into their rigs they bought themselves, they'll be brought up on charges? Where do you kids get this stuff?

  • its not just the hole drilling its the fact they are drawing added power and its not something they put on its gay they should just go with pierce or ferrera(sp)Rigs.

  • Did that School Bus have a door on the Driver Side?

  • yes its made for kids to cross streets safer

  • @RAFISRAFI thats cool

  • great video ! to bad they cant have a real Q on all of their rigs ..

  • are you kidding me? FDNY using their siren tones AND a mechanical!!!! No Way!!!

  • Hmmm, No it is not an eQ2b! It's real mechanical siren! You can hear that it's real. If you look closly at the drivers front corner on the extended front bumper (as well as a clip from this fellows other video you'll see it) It's a stripped down mechanical siren with a red front. I'm going to guess it's a Federal model 28. Especially with the quick wind down on arrival. It's a shame the video quality is poor.

  • thank you very much, did you check out my other vids too!!??

  • EQ2b not the real thing but still works since the won,t allow the really thinf because of the noise level or some shit like that. Anyway you got some good stuff.

  • no most dont put the real Q any more because of the high amp draw and so you dont beat the alt on the truck up near as much...even though i say all LEDs to combat the amp draw

  • Yea i know

  • Theres so many false rumors as to why they dont use Q's its not even funny...BUT...one of the real and the main reason is....from a very good source, they dont use Q sires b/c of the seagrave warranty. And if they drill holes into the rig the FDNY will be brought up on charges. So most houses find very creative ways to mount there sirens....ive seen duct tape, zip ties, rope, etc. Personally, I hate the Eq2b. Sounds like a cat with a finger (or paw w/e) up its a**.

  • Actually, its because of all the Noise the Q causes, the reason you stated is absurd.

  • Check your messages regarding this.

  • actually i was talking to my asst. chief who is in FDNY and he has said they (city) are starting to reconize how effective the Q is and i believe they are allowing them to install them, but thing is it's dumb to say about something with a warranty, why, there are so many other dept.'s out there with a Q on them and it does'nt effect the whole apparatus.

  • The warranty also prohibits the self installed Q's b/c they have to tap into the electrical system. Since a Q2b draws so much power, it can can take away power, shorten out, or cause failure to other more important features of the rig putting FF's in risk of injury or death God for bid. (I should have mentioned that in the first one but I can only type 500 characters on the comment so i couldnt fit all of this.)
