Gotta say two extremely professional fire fighters who take their role extremely serious and proudly. What a great house that must be to have such dedication from volunteer's.
Great using headsets. I like the arrangement and storage of the adapters, etc. I’ve never seen two light towers, just one normally, on an engine but I like it. Great organization, very well thought out. The hose bed is solid, shows great pride in their truck, job and organization. The department obviously takes pride and care in their equipment.
Thank you my FF friend for doing and promoting how People can join a Volunteer program with these community FD stations you TOUR. NO experience just "WOW" a person can volunteer for their community by just checking it out, everyone has a special talent, put it to work as a volunteer FF. Help your community, please people in America give back to your home Town community. I love the slide out Tool tray in the compartment for the different Fitting. The canvas BAG for HYDRANTS is such a great alternative to say the aluminum steel BOX kits we use.
Great to see a Buffalo suburb Fire Department/District/Company like Twin District get the spot light. I'm an exempt member of neighboring Depew Fire Department, Central Hose Co. 4 & West End Hose Co. 6. and it was a truly rewarding experience I'll never forget.
Can you please do a video on a Coast Guard station or an Military Police station? Maybe also a National Guard mustering station or a Pararescue station (though that one might not be possible)
I know not everyone in the departments know a tone about their radios systems but is there any chance you can have a small bid about what they are using since there is so much variation across the country
Is it possible to explain the difference between a super pumper and a regular engine or what ever they are compared too? I’m not a fire fighter but still curious. Thanks . God bless all paramedics and fire fighters!!!!
Super Pumpers like FDNY or the Neptune system or similar units are engines whose only jobs are water supply through drafting out of a river or lake or other naturally occurring water source for big water operations. The difference is that most standard engines have a pump size of 1000-2000 GPM (Gallon Per Minute). Some industrial engines can pump 3000 GPM, and the Super Pumpers can pump 5000 GPM or greater on some. The way engines are rated is based on the drafting capacity. So, a 1000 GPM engine off a hydrant may be able to flow 1250 GPM or so, but the max off a draft is 1000 GPM. So typically, super pumpers will not run hand lines or have any tools to fight fires. The only tools they will have is equipment to hook into hydrants and drafting from rivers and other water sources.
@@molassesflash YES thank you for talking about what FDNY had. Talking about the old school RIGS. The separate Tractor trailer (Pump only) and then the (support water flow) Pumpers, (super Pumpers) one of the TOY makers, made reproduction models of three of those RIGS, kicking myself for NOT adding to my collection. I do have all (5) of the Heavy FDNY Rescue models though. One through 5. It's so sad, my models are of some of the Rescue that were Destroyed on (9-11) Twin Towers. It's so nice the FDNY Donated RESCUE #4 ( that was at Twin Tower that Day) to the Hall of Flame museum in Phoenix Arizona. All Fire BUFFS & Firefighters should visit Arizona to go to the museum. My Retired Batt. Chief life long friend Donated his DADS (former Chief of Angle Lake Washington) FD#24. His recreation of a model (T) Chiefs vehicle. It's on Display there NOW. The big Storage Building behind the Museum is to DIE for with all the Donations inside that building. One is an American L France. From a (Motorola) CEO. He installed different (RADIOS) from Motorola through the Years in CAB. The Restoration he did on that Engine is one of the BEST have seen.
FAST=Four Aholes Standing Talking! Your best friends though when things go south! Great looking rig though. I used the old metal Indian Tanks back when I was a Junior FF.
@@HeroesNextDoor Between those and the old Salvage Master water vacs that went on your back it's no wonder I have back issues today. Of course we have to throw in the old Ferno cots as well!
FAST has been the term in New York for decades. There is nothing new about it. Just the accronym is different. Same purpose and same training as RIC or RIT. It just depends where you are and what you're taught.
@@molassesflash not talking about that, I’m talking about the board… the fast board for rescues maybe go back to where they pull it out and what they call it.
Hi! Thanks for watching the video. I am not actually a driver at my department yet as I have not met the minimum age. This is why I was not confident in my answer. Hope you have a great day!
In New York State, volunteer firefighters are not required to hold CDL of any form to drive apparatus for fire department related activities. However, if you were to buy that engine and own it privately, you would need CDL to drive it as it is no longer in public use. Departments, however, require the members to get cleared on an apparatus before they may drive it using in-house training, EVOC (Emergency Vehicle Operations Course) through insurance companies or state training.

1000%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the LVAC ambulance at the end. Love the military support and would love to see them on here!

Agreed! Thanks for watching
Another amazing Pierce apparatus roaming the streets of America no doubt best trucks in the World

I’ve actually worked with Morgan at the Buffalo Niagara airport interestingly enough. He’s a class act
THE FAST BOARD ANG TURK TOOL ! DIGG ITT ! THANKS BROTHER MIKE ! 🇺🇸
You bet
I am at awww.. That you guys so much for the tour. Love that rig.
Thanks for watching
great job!!! man is that young guy smart!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you ever have to pause shooting because the person you’re interviewing has to respond to a call?
Amazing truck, love that they are flying a flag behind the truck wish more departments did that.
I agree!
Can you please do a video on a Coast Guard station or an Military Police station? Maybe also a National Guard mustering station or a Pararescue station (though that one might not be possible)
The gray over red is so beautiful!! I love the design and the truck. It's always nice to see a deck gun.
I know not everyone in the departments know a tone about their radios systems but is there any chance you can have a small bid about what they are using since there is so much variation across the country
Another great Video!! Please keep them coming.....
Thanks! Will do!
Light towers on Pumpers is pretty normal in NY. Most light towers in western NY are on Pumpers or Rescue Pumpers.
heroesnextdoor you should go to river road volunteer fire company in town of tonawanda , new york
I went to there website, why can’t all the fire departments have that nice of website?
Nice
Very nice
He is captain? Wow
Excellent video, liked and shared 🧑🏻👍🏻
Big thanks
@@HeroesNextDoor No problem 🧑🏻👍🏻
I once saw an engine with colored gauges. Is this to make line usage easier ? Like the captain saying, "I need 1.25 inches from red, please"

@@molassesflash if I knew how to love that comment I would. 5000gpm is ALOT of water . Thanks for explaining.

I’ve see FAST on Instagram, seems pretty new.

We are doing a complete review on the board. Coming soon.
southtowns are the best
Dope
I think you accidentally sent that to a utube video comment section instead of the text to your dealer.
Your a driver and you don’t know if you need a CDL? No offense but isn’t that something you should know?

Man don’t disrespect fire fighters please, they do a lot for our community.
