It is always impressive when the fire brigade has to respond. Thank you for the video so that we can also discover how the fire brigade is organized in other countries. Greetings Eddy (Mechelen/Belgium)
Yea finally they was a waste of money they spend most of the time off the run and they can’t be used at certain jobs they aren’t called carps now they are multi star +
I would love to see an indepth video explaining the vehicles and staffing of fire apparatus in the UK. It's mind boggling to me to see an aerial truck with only two seats! What are the job breakdowns for the different positions on the different types of apparatus? Etc
Great catchs mate, Appreciate the work you put into these video's. I have a Question tho, How do you know whats coming and when, also howd you know the call signs?
Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words! I don't know what's coming, I merely just wait and see what comes! As for the callsigns, I used to be a huge enthusiast of WMFS and spent hours learning about the brigade / visiting stations. I got to learn the system but now use the WMFS Wikipedia page for ones I don't know/remember.
CobraEmergencyVideos wow! I don’t recommend using Wikipedia for callsigns as the lists are often incomplete. I recommend fleet lists and photo databases with captions! Great vid btw
I guess im asking the wrong place but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account? I was dumb lost my login password. I would love any help you can offer me.
@Vivaan Boden i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
The actual pump (for the water) runs off of the engine for the appliance.. There is a leaver in the cab that disengages the engine from the drive shaft and engages it to the pump motor.. Therefore the engine is constantly running on the fire ground to run the pump.. At long protracted incidents like this where the engine is going to be running for a considerable time the bonnet is opened to stop the engine over heating
@@LondonEmergency999 what, having all the time in the world, realise there is a fire engine behind you, slam the brakes on at a crossing with just mm to sparr either side of the appliance? they should have stopped earlier or driven through the crossing and stopped further ahead.
AB you will be surprised how many times that happens to you when you are on a blue light run I think they just see the blue lights and panic it frustrates the hell out of me but there ain’t a lot you can do
CobraEmergencyVideos thanks. I saw it earlier in the video with a old Dennis appliance and assumed it had broken down, but then the newer appliances did the same toward the end, seemed odd as I thought as with most engines the water pumps and stuff is at the back lol
1:57 that driver if the white stopped right by the keep left sign and had no idea what to do when approached by emergency vehicles....they should have carried on through and not slowed the fire truck down.
@@naik216 I think the video quality is amazing. Thank you for the feedback! Only main issue I am having do far is stability. I may get a stability device like a Gimball.
It's now being reported as 9 fire engines by the local press. Been waiting for an official release by WMFS. It's a great shame about The Cadbury Club, clearly a building of much history and culture. But at least the factory and wider Cadbury's complex is safe.
@@CobraEmergency Since Cadbury's sold out our traditional quality chocolate, we are all eating the vile artificial rubbish made Kraft foods in the USA. 😃
@@timearp8185 nice to know they’re keeping the Dennis the menace fleet even if it’s a relief fleet they’re staying within the brigade for some time. The square body looks iconic at least I think it does.
@@minidriversouthsweden5137 Yep, always good to go past our local fire station and see their old '05 plate Dennis back in the garage! Not sure they're so happy, having to transfer everything each time..
That was a stubborn bugger of a fire to knock down, I don't know what the MP was but they sure threw a lot of resources at it. Would a second aerial have helped ?
Bloody hell! WMFS obviously love their chocolate... How many times did appliances (including the ALP and the silver Audi) clearly turn into Cadbury World only to have to do a U turn back onto Linden Rd! How embarrassing?! :0D
thepymes A factory that size must have its own Emergency Response Team or fire team or at the least a lot of security. The company should have had people who knew what was going on (and in radio contact with each other) posted at the various entrances to direct the emergency services to the appropriate area. This is basic stuff and the company has failed here not the emergency services.
@@roddyk05 Yes, Cadburys do have a fire team who patrol round the factory site in a Fiesta! However, the Social Club isn't on the factory site and doesn't belong to Mondelez. It is off a public road (Bournville Lane) opposite the factory. It should have been clear from the appliance MDT that they needed to turn down Bournville Lane and not into the clearly sign posted Cadbury World which is a private road off Linden Road. My guess is that they misread the MDT and turned off Linden Road too early (Bournville Road is the next left beyond the beautiful Cadbury cricket ground). To be fair I'm pretty sure it will have been appliances from out of the area and NOT the crews from Selly Oak or Northfield (Kings Norton would have approached from the other direction) but someone still owes the station a 'cake run' before their next shift! :0D
If their MDTs are anything like ours in the Ambulance service then no wonder they took the wrong road. The satnavs in ours have some weird and wonderful ideas where certain hospitals are! 😂
Usual poor driving from the Clio I see. Hear sirens and just jump on the brakes which absolutely no thought of their surroundings. Bet the idiot didn’t even register there was a traffic island alongside him. Well done to fire reacting appropriately
Ambulances are dispatched regardless...especially if there is more than 5 appliances at an incident ...This is usually to aid fire fighters at scene heat exaction etc

Finally there’s a decent video of the new PRLs
Glad to actually catch some!
CobraEmergencyVideos hey did you know Cambs fire are getting two new TLs
Nick Dennis finally they are going to replace those CARPs
Yea finally they was a waste of money they spend most of the time off the run and they can’t be used at certain jobs they aren’t called carps now they are multi star +
@@nickdennis7467 Yes I did!
Brilliant video, great work. Fantastic to see Dennis appliances still in use 👍
Thanks. I agree, fantastic machines.
You can’t beat a Dennis I miss the sabres better to drive than the scania much better handling

Good video and can you do Leicestershire police the next video please
Couldn't agree more! Real pleasure.
Please
great vid mate got to love the old dennis surprised they still use them!
5:48 oh I love that view point through the leaves!!! So cool!
Wow, Great Video As Always
Why are the fronts open on the pumps at 8:10?
Too lazy to close them I think.

@@brendanbutcher1476 Thanks.
Great videos mate, nice to see some content out of West Mids. One of the silent counties.
Thanks. Was nice to finally get some good WMFS content!
CobraEmergencyVideos - yeah done well for one trip!
Good catch! a sad sight seeing my childhood club up in flames though 😥
From 0:15, I love how the fire engine came with a squeaky noise when it went over the speed bump 😂
Those old fire engines did that! I miss the sound 😂
Cool video and some pretty nice trucks :)
Amazing 🔥
Never seen appliances with bonnets up before, I assume to aid engine cooling?
is that Freddie Mercury 5:23 haha??? Wow great turn out nice clips
Looks like it haha! Thanks.
I had to go look at that bit, and yep seems to be :D
It made me laugh when I saw that !
Amazing catches :)
Stunning vid!
Great vid well done lads
Awsome video 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚒🚒🚒🚒
2:00 what a clown. Suprised the truck fitted through the gap
nothing wrong with that manoeuvre....
@@LondonEmergency999 what, having all the time in the world, realise there is a fire engine behind you, slam the brakes on at a crossing with just mm to sparr either side of the appliance? they should have stopped earlier or driven through the crossing and stopped further ahead.
A B my bad, I thought you were talking about the appliance driver. Yes that motorist was a clown
AB you will be surprised how many times that happens to you when you are on a blue light run I think they just see the blue lights and panic it frustrates the hell out of me but there ain’t a lot you can do
Yes terrible place to stop, ironically if they just carried on, both would have got there faster
Did they all take a wrong turn at the beginning? These are really interesting videos, thanks.
Great video as always some good catches on this
Cheers!
Why do they pumps have their front engine covers open?
I'll ask!
CobraEmergencyVideos thanks. I saw it earlier in the video with a old Dennis appliance and assumed it had broken down, but then the newer appliances did the same toward the end, seemed odd as I thought as with most engines the water pumps and stuff is at the back lol
This is to allow the vehicles to keep themselves cool as the engine is running but it's not moving. (I work for the Volvo truck and bus group)
@@keoeaves2562 Thanks Keo! Makes perfect sense.
Keo Eaves excellent thanks for the info!
When @ 6.41 why do they all have the front of the engines open?
Allows increased air flow through the vehicles radiator & oil cooler when the engines running at high revs driving the Godiva pump
Nice
Nice one mate!
Drivers do not seem to have a clue to move over if an emergency service vehicle is coming up behind or going the other way.
That’s driving in brum for you
1:57 that driver if the white stopped right by the keep left sign and had no idea what to do when approached by emergency vehicles....they should have carried on through and not slowed the fire truck down.
3:33 an all red and white front lightbar on a new vehicle is this a glimps into the future?
That's a command unit. he captioned it at the bottom explaining about the light bar
This video was filmed manually with the Sony AX700. What did you think and how does it compare to the camera I was using, the Sony AX53?
You can see the difference, the investment was worth it!
700 is better ,and video quality is 👌
@@thescottishpanda5 I think the video quality is fantastic. It was a big expense but definitely seems good so far. Thank you!
@@naik216 I think the video quality is amazing. Thank you for the feedback!

Very nice picture. Great quality.
6:39 has that engine broken down or something?
@@staffsemergresp oh that makes sense
Great catch, luckily it was the social club building and not the main factory. Do you know how many engines there were in total?
Yea all that choclate that could of melted
It's now being reported as 9 fire engines by the local press. Been waiting for an official release by WMFS.
It's a great shame about The Cadbury Club, clearly a building of much history and culture. But at least the factory and wider Cadbury's complex is safe.
@@CobraEmergency Since Cadbury's sold out our traditional quality chocolate, we are all eating the vile artificial rubbish made Kraft foods in the USA. 😃
Why do there all have the engine visible
Did you get the video of the massive factor fire?
Hello! The Tyseley Fire?
CobraEmergencyVideos Yes!
@@joshhello1608 Yes I did! But I got there quite late and access was hard. Some footage though will be included in a compilation on Friday! 😊
Very nice Video :-)
Good video
Why have they opened the front grills on the appliances
To keep the appliances cool :)
Ooooo, a Dennis! Nice!
@ 0:14 can’t beat a Dennis fire engine. There’s not many left in service I think. I don’t see many videos of a Dennis fire engine.
WMFS currently use their old Dennis applicances in their relief fleet when the others are being serviced.
@@timearp8185 nice to know they’re keeping the Dennis the menace fleet even if it’s a relief fleet they’re staying within the brigade for some time. The square body looks iconic at least I think it does.

Do you know many pumps? I saw one report saying 10 then another saying 15 plus two ALPs
Ben Walmsley 9 Pumping Appliances, 1 Emergency Rescue Appliance, 1 Command Support Appliance and 2 Hydraulic Platforms.
It's now being reported as 9 pumps by local press. Awaiting an updated press release from WMFS.
3:23 Forward facing red lights, illegal surely?
Allowed if the vehicle is being used as a command unit! The red signifies the command point.
That was a stubborn bugger of a fire to knock down, I don't know what the MP was but they sure threw a lot of resources at it. Would a second aerial have helped ?
6:10 international rescue thunderbird 2
Thunderbirds are go!
Was it just me or did anyone else hear a faint rumbler sort of sound on the platform at 0:58?
That fire is still burning someone should definitely get the fire out now
The fire is out now :)
Thank god for that mate
Brill video yery yery good work
How
Did you ask to look at some of the scenes
I could see a lot of the scene from behind the cordon on this one, which is unusual!

6.30 fleet management and service vehicle with fuel bowser.
When my college had a fire a WMFS Dennis Sabre turned up
They're always about when something is on fire! Even still!
@@CobraEmergency Yeah along with a WMFS Pick Up. I think the Sabre and maybe a Volvo or just two Sabres turned up when my school had a fire.
0:46 daym with grill lights like them you dont need headlight flashers
5:29 it snapped the police tape :)
sabre snaps police tape
Is it me or did they all go to the wrong place first?
They probably needed directions through Cadbury World
Yes some went the wrong way. Some found their way around while others turned around and came back.
Chocolate fondue anyone?
Usual poor driving from the Clio I see. Hear sirens and just jump on the brakes which absolutely no thought of their surroundings. Bet the idiot didn’t even register there was a traffic island alongside him. Well done to fire reacting appropriately
Why do the British fire trucks have such poor emergency lights fitted on front needs more on
Every fire engine taking the wrong left..
Yes 🤣
well, the ambulance wasnt a good sign
Apologies - the ambulances were unrelated but just passing the incident.
Ambulances are dispatched regardless...especially if there is more than 5 appliances at an incident ...This is usually to aid fire fighters at scene heat exaction etc

Just think of all that burnt chocolate ! Sacrilege !
Hahaha first. Sorry had to do it
🤣 Of course always one!
