Avondale 607 & Relief TTL Responding, Pitt Street, 15 Dec 08

I've been having nothing but success with these fire vids lately, something seems to happen every time I leave the building, LOL!

i've never seen a Spartan in NZ...

[thekiwicanuck]

@VFVFCo68 There are only three in NZ that I know of, this one, Hamilton 415, and Auckland Airport 361, all of which are on YouTube now.

@WhitakerSJA Wooden Ladders you can see like the damage on them better, plus with electrical stuff they don't kill you

[thekiwicanuck]

@WhitakerSJA Oh cool! Hmmm, good question, that is an old engine which may be part of the reason. I don't particularly like aluminium ladders myself, something to do with a bad experience unknowingly using one near an electric fence...

[WhitakerSJA]

@thekiwicanuck hey pal. I have applied to the London Fire Brigade here in the UK and was wondering why your engines still carry the wooden ladders.

[johnsmithy667]

@K99fire i think you commonwealthers secretly are in love with american apparatus, you just don't want to admit it....
