- The call initially came in as a reported building fire at 26th St & Penrose Avenue, but when Foam 60 arrived on location, they had smoke showing from the top of a tank inside of the refinery. The assignment was upgraded to a HazMat box and eventually would go to 2 Alarms before being placed under control.

That must be every truck in the PFD! Nice video!!
Its quite a bit of them lol
Yes, they were starting to get a bit thin. You see the Box had already been put under control . Most companies had taken up and there were only a few companies left on seen. So when it blew we had to resend companies.
Also, these refineries have their own fire units. When the Box comes in we already know it's a job because they handle a lot of problems on their own and we never know about it.
You would think the local radio station would be broadcasting on their traffic reports for drivers to avoid using key roads near where the major fire is. Would make the emergency responders jobs easier. Then again, who builds a giant oil refinery deep inside an existing city?
Good points
Probably someone who built a refinery in the countryside and watched planners and the $$$$ build the city round it.
Epic! What are some of the chief unit abbreviations stand for? I know some and I’m wondering what IS is.
Assuming either incident safety or incident support
IS1 is Incident Safety Officer
BN is Battalion Chief
DC is Deputy Chief
HU is HazMat Administrative Unit
AC is Assistant Chief
ES is EMS Supervisor
FM is Fire Marshal
Not sure if I missed any in here

What were they doing at 3:09 ?
Awesome catches!
Thanks!
Great catch hope everyone is ok, wish I was there,all them firetrucks would be my Disney land.I would have to change my camera a dozen times.
Thanks, and yes. This one had no injuries as far as I know.
As being from Philly got to say one of the biggest fires in Philly history
Definitely not one of the largest in history. There have been 12 alarm fires before. But this was a very big response.
Not hardly. Try Gulf Refinery 1975. We lost Multiple men, 5 at least. They were using foam naturally, but the fire was still burning under it. When there was a break in the foam blanket the fuel hit a spark off one of the trucks.

Glad you enjoyed!

How Long It Took To Put Out This Oil Refinery Fire Out
