    I like working at the smaller stations. A lot less maintenance, thus giving us more training time.

    • @EnjoyFirefighting
      @EnjoyFirefighting 6 лет назад +1

      the station in my former home town had 47 truck bays but it got too small over the years. They currently built the new station with 55 truck bays. They have a manpower of at least 21 fire-fighters per shift and only run like 5 to 6calls in a 24 hour shift. They have sufficient time for maintenance work on the apparatus, practical training, workout, relax etc.

    At least a "top ten" video which really goes around the whole world and not focusing onto like one country. One small aspect which would have been even better, to have actual station numbers and/or names, thus e.g. the one shown for the city of Cologne in Germany is only one out of several stations in the city

    • @EnjoyFirefighting
      @EnjoyFirefighting 7 лет назад

      uhm actually we need only a station crew of 21 fire-fighters for more than 50 units housed at the station ...
      John Kindley In Germany we rather go for less large instead of many small stations; The response time isn't affected much.stead of numerous apparatus from several stations making their way through city traffic on their own and vehicles required to pull over numerous times, the apparatus respond as aconvoy and vehicles pull over only once. In my city (population of 200k inhabitants) the CFD runs only one station which covers all of the city area 1st-due. They are able to cover roughly 95% of the city area within a 6 minutes drive at an average speed of 40 mph in city traffic. The CFD in the state's capital city ( population of 1.7 million) has 10, temporarily 11, fire stations. In each one of the cities with a CFD there's a VFD with one or several stations. The VFD is only dispatched in order to support the CFD in larger scenarios, staff the CFD station for possible further calls or in case of multiple calls at the same time

There are stations from volunteer departments which have the same size here, but from career fire departments there are stations which are a multiple of the one in Trento. No hate, I'm sure the station in Trento fullfills the local needs somehow, but to be really honest it's far from big for my scale.

      Just read FireHouse magazine and you'll see the display of very nice, very large stations in the annual fire station of they year article. They're big, they're expensive, and they're probably not necessary in many cases. It's hard to believe city managers fall for this expense at times. There is no doubt...some of this is excessive to house a few trucks and some firefighters on duty. FDNY Rescue 1 does a hell of a lot of work each year out of a very small station that barely fits the rig inside.

    • @EnjoyFirefighting
      @EnjoyFirefighting 7 лет назад

      Actually I wrote an article on the station in my home town for the fire apparatus & equipment magazine already ...
      Thus the 47 bay station got too small to fit alla apapratus inside, and aprt from that, its old part was in a poor condition; But of course, tax payers money could also be invested in more important things like ... new street lights, a new golf course, ... it's nothing wrong with building a new station when its needed; Tey usually won't get a new one replacing this station within a few decades ...
