Great job on this video and good looking firetruck. I remember when I was a volunteer firefighter for St.Helens Oregon we got a new firetruck and it was fun going code three with the lights and sirens and air horns. Great job ladies and gentlemen.
Thank You for your Clips ! You are welcome to come West on I 78 or I 80 and take Clips of the Reading, PA , Harrisburg, PA and the other FD's in PA Reading will keep you hopping as it is an Urban Hood to the T ! Both of these FD's are busy and do the Job with VERY MINIMAL MANPOWER !
Thank you, always wondered what they carried equipment wise. Pretty much same that we carry, except we carry some portable lights to use inside a structure. Didn't see anything like that . Now if you could get an engine and do the same thing it would be great.
@@SkylerFire Which FDNY very rarely uses. Protocol is to use TLs as much as possible for elevated master streams during exterior operations. Much safer & more accurate.
@@SkylerFire Truck is a relatively loose term. Rockaway Point Volunteers in Queens have a 4x4 mini-pumper labeled Truck 4. Where I live now the city's truck companies are all Sutphen tower quints.
A beautiful Seagrave! Just saw a video from FL92002 from May 20th of Ladder 32 in action. Both 62 and 32 had to head down the block for a fire at a bakery. Question for ya Skyler, what's that hose on the right side next to the ladder?
TDAs carry more & are most maneuverable. But few depts can spend so much. Places like LA, San Francisco, & Seattle are different. Loads of traffic & large tax bases. Fewer fire units per square mile. You walk any direction in NYC & you will find a fire station before too many blocks. You can drive for miles in LA before spotting one. Structural fires are relatively rare. It's wildland fires & MVCs which cause the most headaches.
What? no bell rope in the cab and no bucket? Nice truck, I saw that the vertical clearance is 10' 10", is that because of the territory or a uniform standard of the department?
The tiller trucks don't have that big old cab over the tillerman do they, ours were too high and hard to see off of and drive with the box in heavy city traffic? I liked our old American La France 1947 ladder whose tillerman bucket was real low to the ground.
Most of them but every truck is different. Some trucks are SOC support, water rescue, vent support, Decon support. And some trucks may just carry extra stuff for there first due area
NFPA 1901 requires that fire apparatus be equipped with a minimum of one approved dry-chemical portable fire extinguisher with a minimum of 80-B:C rating and one 2.5-gallon (9.5-liter) or larger pressurized water extinguisher. Engine companies often carry additional numbers & types of extinguishers including CO2 & Purple-K.
Lol. Yeah it’s Mugsy from Looney Tunes he’s one of the gangsters that was featured Rocky is the other gangster. They are part of the motto for Engine 62 and Ladder 32 nickname of the Gun Hill Gang. I hope that explains it for you.
Why does NYC buy it's sticks with no prepiped waterway? I can almost understand no pump. But they have to run an old fashioned hose based ladder pipe if they want to use it for a mast stream. That's pretty bad.
@@LCERRP if a stick is first on scene, and they need a master stream, it's a lot slower to set up a ladder pipe. I guess they just wait for the Aerialscope to show up.
Interesting to note that the Hurst Tool and the spreaders are the new battery operated variety. Also, when filming cab interiors and such, I'd suggest that when you zoom in, you pan s-l-o-w-l--y so that we can get a better view of what's there withoug having to take dramamine.🙂.
Alot of department's are going to battery operated ones. They are just as effective, the batteries are actually very safe and last awhile, and you don't lose any cutting/spreading power. Plus without needing air or hydraulic lines and reels, it saves space and money, cuts down deployment time and allows them to be used anywhere. My department has gotten a new set of Holmatro tools over the past 6-8 months including a set of cutters, spreaders, omni-tools and rams, and I was lucky enough to use them in training last month. When I tell you they have some power behind them, they really do. We were able to cut a car apart fairly quick, doors, roof, even do a dash roll, and the batteries only dropped to half after about 30 or so minutes of work. That means we can get an hour of near continuous work out of 1 battery per tool, which is incredible. The best part is thanks to the lack of lines and reels, we can go as far from our rescue engine as we please and they don't take up alot of space inside their compartment.
Love the Seagraves! I wish fdny would go back to Mack’s! Best trucks ever man. I grew up on the Mack’s. When I was a kid I would ride on ladder 107’s open cab ladder loves that rig
If Mack still made fire apparatus, many agencies would likely try them again. The thing today is single-source suppliers (SSSers). It's complex but basically, if something goes wrong with you million dollar toy, you don't wanna try to figure out who to hold responsible. Big cities almost exclusively purchase from SSSers, including Seagrave, Sutphen, Spartan ER, KME, Pierce, E-One, Ferrara, HME Ahrens-Fox, & Rosenbauer because they manufacturer & assemble nearly everything themselves. Anything goes wrong, you know right where to go.
Those outriggers deploy real quick! This truck is a true beaute!
For sure!
I used to buff this house back in the 90’s. Did a couple tours, busy house. Thanks Skyler
Thanks for watching great house indeed
Very cool video, we don't often see the inside of the apparatus and all the equipment they carry. Great job!
I have about 20 other apparatus with compartments to post…. Hopefully soon
Ikr
Well done! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Your Welcome
I'd like to point out that guy in the van thanked the FD for what they do! Class act. Thanks for the video Skyler as always!!
I swear I am a magnet for everything. Always someone coming up to me while I am doing something
Great job on this video and good looking firetruck. I remember when I was a volunteer firefighter for St.Helens Oregon we got a new firetruck and it was fun going code three with the lights and sirens and air horns. Great job ladies and gentlemen.
IMPRESSIVE RIG !! REALLY nice job Skyler !! Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much
@@SkylerFire No problem. You're welcome.
Like the pack set up. Makes it easier to don then blindly putting your hands behind your back trying to find a strap.
Yeah thanks for watching
Thank you so much for showing what the Ladder company carry in all the compartments. 😊
You bet!
Beautiful apparatus! Thank you for sharing!❤
Awesome video! It's really cool to see a brand new Seagrave Ladder for the FDNY!
For sure!
Loved this video - great detailed tour! Thanks!
Thanks
Oh man! What an awesome truck!
It sure is!
I like the wheel chocks stashed in the wheel well.
For sure!
Nice truck. Glad to see that Q
Right on
Great walk around video
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank You for your Clips !
You are welcome to come West on I 78 or I 80 and take Clips of the Reading, PA , Harrisburg, PA and the other FD's in PA
Reading will keep you hopping as it is an Urban Hood to the T !
Both of these FD's are busy and do the Job with VERY MINIMAL MANPOWER !
Wonderful video
Thx
Great video sharp looking ladder truck seagraves old and new are amazing have a great day from Maine
Very cool thanks
Thanks for watching
Great video!!! Looking forward to more of these!
Incredible! Thanks so much!
Thanks
Thank you, always wondered what they carried equipment wise. Pretty much same that we carry, except we carry some portable lights to use inside a structure. Didn't see anything like that . Now if you could get an engine and do the same thing it would be great.
Some stuff is carried above on top but I forgot about it
Ambient light is generally not a problem in The City. If they need more, Operations Support will bring all they need.
Very cool informative visually. Not usually seen Great work
Liked and shared 🧑🏻👍🏻🚒
Thanks
@@SkylerFire You're welcome 🧑🏻👍🏻
Epic! Are there more Seagrave (rear mount aerials) RMA’s on order? Will there be orders of (rear mount platforms) RMP’s ladders as well?
56 RM Aerials. They don’t do RM Platforms. MM Tower Ladders only and stil a decent amount coming in and another 60 or so engines.
@@SkylerFire Okay, that sounds cool. Np!
Great vid. The Outriggers are hilarious. They sound like a UFO.
FDNY running Whelen lights.... I never thought I would see the day....
I guess the days of the Ferrara trucks are numbered
Special Units only
@@SkylerFire Are there certain ladder trucks designated as special ? that carry more equipment ? I spotted the grip hoist ?
One very nice piece of kit..... is it custom that a new appliance is pushed into the fire house by the members, I read it some where, stay safe Pal
That’s more of a volunteer type thing
Great video. What is on the deck of the truck, right above the spreaders compartmant.
Should be some foam buckets up there
@SkylerFire, so is the red object mounted abive the compartment a foam inductor?
That’s the deck pipe / aerial pipe for master streams
@@SkylerFire Which FDNY very rarely uses. Protocol is to use TLs as much as possible for elevated master streams during exterior operations. Much safer & more accurate.
Nice rig!
Sure is!
Nice ride
For sure!
Nice rig. We had a ALF rear mount back in the day. All Pierce tillers nowadays. Whats the manning on FDNY Ladders, 5 or 6? Thanks for sharing.
5FF and a Officer
Nice truck.
Awesome video
thx
Awesome!
Thanks
Lots of tools aboard
Yup Trucks do all the work!
@@SkylerFire Engine, squad & rescue companies do some work too, Skyler.
That's awesome! I'm sure it's got medical equipment because it will go on EMS runs later on.
All FDNY rigs carry EMS equipment, and Defib.
@@SkylerFire Incorrect. Line & Spec Ops companies carry CFR responder bags. Not all 'rigs.'
Dear FDNY, never get rid of the phone. Ever.
It's noisy in the City. Makes it easier to hear.
Does FDNY Run any Ladder companies with pumps (OR Quints )
No they are all true truck companies
@@SkylerFire Truck is a relatively loose term. Rockaway Point Volunteers in Queens have a 4x4 mini-pumper labeled Truck 4. Where I live now the city's truck companies are all Sutphen tower quints.
Fdny deserve all the newest and best equipment they are elite.
Spoken like someone who doesn't pay NYC taxes.
A beautiful Seagrave! Just saw a video from FL92002 from May 20th of Ladder 32 in action. Both 62 and 32 had to head down the block for a fire at a bakery. Question for ya Skyler, what's that hose on the right side next to the ladder?
For ladder pipe
@@SkylerFire So they can still flow water off ladders, just using a line and nozzle independent of the truck. Got it. Thanks!
@@Stargazzer811 takes time and rarely used that’s what they use tower ladders for. Safer and better
Sweet; we need a few here instead of 100 TDA’s!!

Well done placement of every tool. Plenty of cribbing and misc one off things.
good fdny seagrave
What? no bell rope in the cab and no bucket? Nice truck, I saw that the vertical clearance is 10' 10", is that because of the territory or a uniform standard of the department?
All engines, towers, sticks, tillers are 10’ 10”
The tiller trucks don't have that big old cab over the tillerman do they, ours were too high and hard to see off of and drive with the box in heavy city traffic? I liked our old American La France 1947 ladder whose tillerman bucket was real low to the ground.
Vehicle height is restricted to 13'-6" in NYC so the 10-10 restriction for FDNY is likely due to station bay door heights.
Are most of trucks set up the same way
Most of them but every truck is different. Some trucks are SOC support, water rescue, vent support, Decon support. And some trucks may just carry extra stuff for there first due area
Makes sense
What happens to the old rigs? Do they get sold or put in reserve status?
@@michaelgolliher888 most of them spares. And used for parts. The bad ones get sold
Do they even use chainsaw anymore or just various k12s
K12s chain saws are for trees down and such
They don’t carry c02 extinguishers?
NFPA 1901 requires that fire apparatus be equipped with a minimum of one approved dry-chemical portable fire extinguisher with a minimum of 80-B:C rating and one 2.5-gallon (9.5-liter) or larger pressurized water extinguisher. Engine companies often carry additional numbers & types of extinguishers including CO2 & Purple-K.
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for watching
Why has it taken 17 years to replace the truck? How often are they replaced curious but good rig
What are you talking about 17 years? The old one was a 2011
Said in desperation 17 years old
17 years for the last Seagrave it was a ferrara
O ok
It’s even got a real q siren. Not the crappy fake q, although it probably has that too.
Okay
Why doesn’t the ladder come with piped water?
That’s what the tower ladders are for
Amazing!
Really great truck. You can tell they don’t use a chainsaw much! Would be cool to get more vids like this, new sub btw,.
More coming! I have about 20 rigs done that I will be posting
@@SkylerFire that’s awesome! Glad I subbed. Hoping one is a rescue 😀
Soooo can anyone tell me who the figurine man is strapped to the grille?
Lol. Yeah it’s Mugsy from Looney Tunes he’s one of the gangsters that was featured Rocky is the other gangster. They are part of the motto for Engine 62 and Ladder 32 nickname of the Gun Hill Gang. I hope that explains it for you.

Not it’s not pretty bad because they use the tower ladders for that.
That's what the tower ladders are for.
Because that’s what tower ladders are for
@@LCERRP if a stick is first on scene, and they need a master stream, it's a lot slower to set up a ladder pipe. I guess they just wait for the Aerialscope to show up.
They move it out of the way.
I noticed that with fire trucks, they aren’t built to accommodate shorter drivers. The gas and break pedals don’t move foreword. Can that be added on?
The seat you can move
Sit in the back
The OJ Company.
Ladder plate says Patriot; thought the patriot chassis wasn’t available in a split-tilt. Presumed Attacker.
Hmmm 🤔
Interesting to note that the Hurst Tool and the spreaders are the new battery operated variety. Also, when filming cab interiors and such, I'd suggest that when you zoom in, you pan s-l-o-w-l--y so that we can get a better view of what's there withoug having to take dramamine.🙂.
Alot of department's are going to battery operated ones. They are just as effective, the batteries are actually very safe and last awhile, and you don't lose any cutting/spreading power.
