If anyone iz wondering I actually drove right by this thing when it waz on fire before the fire dept showed up we sa wsome of them after we passed because I live in chantilly va so I live right near here 😅
@@1602FirePhotography I live near the Fair Oaks station so see them a lot and the engine in this video looks different than the one I see at Harris Teeter all the time. I was wondering if they got a different vehicle recently that perhaps I missed. Come to think of it, I haven't seen them at Harris Teeter is while and they havent been shutting down the stoplight on 50 as much and I almost wondered if they had moved to a different station for remodeling. Anyway I said Rescue Engine because on the rear left side of Engine 421 in this video is says "Rescue." Just the word Rescue all by itself in the rear. Not Fairfax Fire and Rescue. Engine 440 doesnt have it on there. It just say 440. Engine 421 says "Rescue." Words have meaning. I imagine they painted it on there for a reason. Or have they reorganzied and now have two vehicles a n engine and a rescue vehicle.
A couple things happened that might be causing you to wonder. One is that one of the trucks out of Fair Oaks station went off the road by the mall and got damaged a few years ago during an ice storm. And then E421 got stolen from a maintenance facility but was relocated. Also the blue and white engine they used to have has been put out of service I think. We went there for a community event and the engine was being repurposed since it was a volunteer company. The rescue 421 looks like an Engine but is different than the old E421 because you will notice that the pump apparatus and ladders atop the back deck are not there. I don't know if Rescue 421 and E421 both still operate there. Or if it's just rescue 421 and the ambulance. Th station commander told us when we visited it was one of the busiest stations in Fairfax County. The bloated question is a policy in Fairfax. Anytime assets are available and they are concerned about extension to a home they will send more than they need.
421 has a rescue squad and an engine as two separate vehicles. They have since at least 1979. They got a rescue engine in 1989 but still ran a standalone squad then too
@@1602FirePhotography I see so the rescue squad 421 is actually a big truck that kind of looks like an Engine and Engine 421 is an actual engine with the water tank and pump unit. thank you
Probably due to safety reasons, jumping the curb would have been very dangerous because at that point traffic was moving at regular speed. Same with going at the opening. Thats all i can think of
Most of the engine companies have minimum ground clearance. Had they jumped the island/curb would have likely damaged the undercarriage and or lots of piping under the truck.
@@1602FirePhotography There would have been NO jumping of the curb because there was an opening that could have been used. Might want to watch your video again bud
@@BarnesyBoy well all these paid firefighter are making fun of volunteer firefighter.... and more paid firefighter die than any other firefighter 80 percent of FF death are firefighter not wearing scba and gear on fire scene....I've been around CFD and how they talk crap about everyone but they are not that impressive...no one wears scba so I go the city lawyers make sure the firefighter don't sue City for not wearing scba and dying

Nice catch! Talk about being in the right spot at the right time.
The Fair Oaks 421 Rescue Engine looks significantly different from the last time I saw them at Harris Teeter. Was this response a bit "bloated?"
What do you mean? Also fair oaks hasnt had a rescue engine since about the 90s

Spinning light on the front never seen one of those must look cool at night. Have you seen the video of Cal-fire flatbed dozer hauling code 3.
It's called a Roto-Ray.
Public Information Officer 402 is a 2011 Chevrolet Impala LS.
I sent this video to PIO 402 lol he is a good buddy of mine.
Why not turn in at the break in the curb prior to the house? Or slow down and jump the curb?

and he could've gotten a lot closer to the fire

Did you see another Chicago fire department has in the line of duty death cuz paid firefighter can't wear scba😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Yes because being a paid firefighter vs being a volunteer firefighter determines if you wear your SCBA or not…
...that and the tunnel vision. Could have taken that left at the intersection like the ambulance...guy waving and everything.
3 rescue trucks?
Not quite, the first two were Hazmat. Fairfax operates similar to FDNY in terms of having a two-piece hazmat company
Whats the new H440?
The new HM440 is a 2019 Pierce Velocity
@@1602FirePhotography oh ok, thanks
No police for traffic
I thought that 421 got a NEW Rescue.
They did, its not in service yet
@@1602FirePhotography Oh ok and isn’t 418’s new rescue in service?
Yes theirs and 414s have been in service for over a year now i believe

Yup, i caught it in 2021 responding to a medical

What is the sense of videoing fire apparatus arriving when there is a building burning which is what the viewers chose this channel to see.
Because all you’d see is the smoke, is it entertaining to just watch smoke rising from behind a building for 10 minutes?
Speak for yourself. I watch these videos for the responses. Secondarily for the incident scene action.
I want to be there helping!
Why ask a stupid question that makes no sense?
It amazes me how oblivious drivers are to emergency vehicles.
Why is a less than 5 minutes response slow😂😂😂😂😂😂
Damn the paid firefighter in my town would still be checking out at store😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
There was no need for all that fire apparatus. All you need for this is a Truck, Engine, Ambo and someone to run the show.
Where did your fire fighting knowledge from Roblox ERLC?
You don’t know anything about this kinda stuff so don’t act like you do.
@chrisluckett1991 Shut your mouth. I know more than you do, little boy. Stay off my channel, Deputy Sheriff.
