Nice tannoy system. Never heard that before. I was expecting it to say once the last pump left….AWESOME….lol
All West Midlands fire stations have this system!
Great video, liked and shared 🧑🏻👍🏻🚒🚒
Thanks!
@@FP05 You're welcome 🧑🏻👍🏻
Great catch
Thanks!
So has Coventry been down graded from 2 PRLs to 1 PRL and 1 BRV?
Pretty much, some new vehicles are due to arrive soon for the 3 stations that have had this change (Coventry, Highgate & Walsall) for their BRVs.
@FP05 Tis a big shame, glad they held on 2 both pumps as long as they did mind 😒
@@BSW150 All part of the new "Risk-based crewing" strategy! I'm told that the 3 new vehicles will be more similar to small PRLs rather than the current Hilux-style BRVs.
Put 4 riders on them and I guess it won't be that much of impact....
New crewing system is a Crew of 8 at 2 vehicle stations and a crew of 5-6 at 1 pump stations. Hence why the 71 & 72 plate pumps have only 5 seats.
Will you please tell us what a reserve pump is ,In the old days it was a pump kept at a divisional stn to be used normally when a pump went off the run owing to a mechanical problem,
It is essentially that, this reserve appliance is standing in for the usual appliance, which is in for repairs at workshops.
Great Vid❤
Thanks!
very nice callout and video
Thanks!
Why is the turnout system counting time passing?
WMFS has a policy that, from the tones dropping, the crew should be mobile in under 90 seconds (aiming for 60 seconds), hence the countdown.
@@FP05 Wow thats cool!
Staffordshire need that defo.
And to help they've ditched the tip slip printers for MDT messages only
@staffsemergresp christ. I dont think It count to 15 mins 😂
@@staffsemergrespstaffs turnouts are shocking big time the new Volvo we have in staffs the lights always break when it rains

They need to take in their mat for oil leaks

The second pump now runs with BRV crewing and now considered a BRV
