do you like sit outside the fire house and wait for calls? lol

Hi. Yes, I know it's a little strange. I usually try to do busy stations ... otherwise it can be like waiting for paint to dry (I always bring a lot of reading material). There are a lot of vids of companies leaving stations, but hardly any where you can hear the dispatch come in first in real time, so I thought it would be fun to make some. I've been on vac, and had some free time to do it. I work in the airline industry, but have followed several fire depts as a hobby since the '70s.

@ColinFWheeler Come to Vancouver BC and sit in front of Hall 2 Hall 9 Hall 3 And Hall 8. Should get some clips for sure

I like this station... small (kinda reminds me of "good old" Station 51 from Emergency! in a way) I was wondering... are those Volvo trucks or perhaps E-One ? I am particularly interested because it looks like they have roll-up utility doors like most British and European trucks. Thanks for your time! ...Jeff

checky out my fire trucks video bro!

[kx250fMIKE]

why not just go ask them to pull the truck out....there nice guys or why not become a volunteer sense you dont think you can become a paid

If you want busy go sit on sta.7 on 122nd or 45's on 172nd. you will most likely see a fire box too. And to pitts. Just like out there if you are really a fireman you know how things are prioritizes when your sent on a house fire compared to a hurt foot. Safer to move slow and deliberate

The Portland Fire & Rescue has a reputation of having fast response times, i don't get what your saying. I don't think in Pittsburgh they always respond within 30 seconds.

[bayisdaman13]

these companies in seattle, and oregon have slow response times, im in pittsburgh the response times are very fast within 30 seconds!

Why don't you just become a firefigther lol
