- Captured here is the 'hydraulic platform' (HP F24) of the Hong Kong Fire Services Department's (HKFSD) Wan Chai fire station responding for an automatic fire alarm activation. Note how the entire crew of the truck waves at me while driving by, as I had just gotten to know them while visiting the station! A big thank you to the amazing firefighters of Wan Chai!

Excellent video Timur. Love when we get waves from the emergency services personnel.
Canadian Emergency Buff Thank you Michael! Yea always an epic moment to know you have their support 😎👌🏼
You are lucky not only to get the FF to invite you in but also to get this HP, as F24 is now a spare. They have since started using a new HP :D
tg757 Thank you for the comment! Yes I heard, makes this video even more special :)
I still have another catch of F24, so that might be the last response video of it as a frontline truck. Have you had a chance to see the new HP up close? Can't wait to see a response video of that! 🙏🏼
@@TGGGlobalEmergencyResponses It is still frontline even today, but just act as sub in for different stations
wowowow
would you look at that XD
did you just go up to the station and asked to talk to them? they probably would've told a local to shoo haha
you're pretty daring going out onto the road lk that haha
gotta get that good angle :P
i believe the title you were looking for is 一級火警自動報火警鐘 灣仔消防局去升降台 ;)
mlps93 Thanks! No, actually it was the other way around haha ...The captain of the station called me over while I was waiting on the median. They asked if I wanted to see the station, and I said yes of course :D
Got a full tour of the station and equipment, and met a lot of the firefighters, who are great guys, very friendly. I was there for over half an hour asking them about their jobs and stuff, and they were eager to share and compare to other countries as well. They actually told me that they don't mind the lack of lights because they say most people do move over for them. At the end I even got some HKFSD merchandise from them haha
Was an awesome visit, and I'll have my video of the station tour uploaded in the near future! ;)
Btw I may have gotten special treatment as a tourist, but I really doubt that they would deny a curious local if you ask nicely and tell them why you are interested. I have visited many fire stations around the world and they have all been very welcoming! Just try it!
:O
how did they notice you? were you taking pics beforehand and they saw you?
totally not super jealous
too bad they didnt get a call whilst you were in station haha
mlps93 I had already filmed them responding to several calls that day so they had seen me waiting out there for a few hours.
That's for next time, I did get a video of the LRU returning from inside the station though ;)
Had I waited 5 mins longer I would have still been inside when the HP got a call, but I think the view from outside is nicer haha
True
But the prized recording will be getting the turnout tones/announcement too XD
mlps93 Yea that's always cool, captured some of those from the outside when I heard them. And I've gotten a few videos recently in Canada where they got toned while I was recording in the station 👍🏼
Awesome catches!
argon68 Thank you sir! :D
Epic!!!!! XD too bad there’s so much traffic
Thank you! Yes lots of tight roads with heavy traffic, very similar to NYC.
Nice catch, that is some impressive rush hour traffic!
000 Responses Thank you! But this is not even rush hour traffic, just regular Hong Kong/ Wan Chai district traffic 😆 (the video was taken at lunch time)
TGG - Global Emergency Responses This is regular traffic? Rip
very nice catch
marlene Thank you! :D
Seems that there are alot of countrys that uses our swedish Scania trucks =)
Legan81 Oh yes, they’re popular all over the world! :)
Recently I saw a new hydraulic platform replacing F24~
Shadow550 Oh really? Is it already in service?? I would not be surprised if F24 needs to be replaced, they run a lot of calls... 😅
TGG - Global Emergency Responses I may go to Wan Chai at the end of May, I may capture it if you want to see it
Shadow550 Yes please! Try to get the first response video :D
TGG - Global Emergency Responses ok. But I may need more time cuz I live in Tuen Mun actually, which is far away from Wan Chai...
Shadow550 Alright I see. If you want to get good videos you always need to invest some time :) ...with this hobby you never know what will happen, sometimes it takes hours for them to get a call, sometimes it's faster... Good luck 👍🏼
Cool
(Yeah that's all you get mwahaha, totally not gonna congratulate you on getting a HKFSD apparatus with waves)
Fire Phoenix Emergency Videos 火鳳凰特殊車輛影視 Lol thank you for your kindness Jealous Jimbo!! 😆
Lol jealous... I think I'll live just fine without a video of them XD
Fire Phoenix Emergency Videos 火鳳凰特殊車輛影視 Haha suit yourself 😂
Some days can u do some scdf or emergency vehicle in Singapore?
I guess you have already watched all my videos from Singapore? I do want to go back one day for sure :)
Cool! How old is that truck?
МиљковићSRB Thanks! I am not sure, but it has been around for a few years.
1998
20 years old
1998
these LED's were retrofitted two years ago
if you search some of my older vids you can see it still has the rotating halogens lol
mlps93 Sadly the LEDs suck...The halogens (German made if I'm not mistaken) were much better. If they really wanted to modernize they could have picked a MUCH better product, and added grille lights as well (for f*cks sake!! Lol) 😆
believe me
the lighting problem is an issue that comes up often even amongst the locals
but at least the new ambulances are great
