Definitely! We are booked out through May, but we are working our way outside of PA. We are working on making a trip to New York in the upcoming months!
I'm watching this video, oh yeah it's a heavy rescue. 42 feet long, mmmm, that's a big rig. "Come look inside at the Command Center," and proceeds to enter back cab. "Seats five and through here is the Command Center." Wait! What? Is that inside of the truck??? Have they conquered a space /time rip or something? ?? HTF? Damn! What a Rescue Unit!
I'm NOT a fan of the white shirt, puts on 10lbs :). I "actually" have a short sleeve Station Cribs shirt but it was cold this day so I needed a long sleeve shirt. Thank you to EVERYONE who is watching. We can not do this without you guys!
I thought he was joking when he said it was a walk-inside. I had no idea they could fit all of that stuff on the outside and still fit a walk-in. I'm sure that truck is twice as capable than most companies.
My country bought some new rescue vehicles with cabins large enough to allow rescuers to suit up inside when the vehicle is on the way to the accident scene, reducing the response time. It has a projector too that the commander can use to brief rescuers on the rescue operation
Wow that's a fairly new rescue, a Nice one too, my local Fire Department has a 1999 E-One Rescue it use to to have a command center inside but sadly it was taken out.
Also great to know that even though it's not a fire truck it does carry a number of different fire extinguishers just incase. E.g they were the first to turn up at an RTA and a fire started, they could commence a small attack until fire truck arrive 🙏🏽
@@HeroesNextDoor I do not have a personal contact with anybody at the station but they do have their own contact form on their stations website. circlevillevfd.org/contact.html You can also checkout the main page itself. You can check out their apparatus and they have a picture on the top of the main page. circlevillevfd.org/
They are very fiscally responsible, they have 2 rental properties that are part of their fire station which is why they have some really nice equipment
Be good for you to when covid is gone as much as possible to arrange to come to the south australian metropolitan fire service station in the city which is huge to do a video on some their sweet rigs.(some things are stored near another station tho) We got atleast 3(but i think 4 now) hooklift units which have multi use so they can do Pumping Road crash rescue (RCR) Fire fighting Water rescue(WTRRES) Building rescue (BLDRES) Command center Ocean rescue Hazmat And much much more We then have ladder trucks pumper trucks hazmat units etc the hooklift is just more of a variety to make it easier if they need more help for a set aera. We then got state emergency and country fire which are different yet again.
Do you know what crew mans this rig? Weather it be the engine crew or ladder crew. Or what ever truck is not really needed that crew would get this truck.
This is a volunteer station, we run what ever truck or trucks are needed for the call. So the crew depends entirely on who is responding to the station
@@HeroesNextDoor I’ve never seen that much extrication equipment on a rescue before, so that would make sense. I live in NW Washington State and most departments here have their ladders serve as the heavy rescue.
Some companies around here do that too. The area that Alert Fire Company covers us a lot of different hazards so they need a large variety of equipment
*Im sure i cant be alone with thinking this* but It would be cool to do a walk around of the apparatus your showing us while having all the lights on, emergency & scene lights around the veh......just an idea, THX.
We are working on doing some more soon! We did a ladder over at West Whiteland if you have not seen that yet! Here is the link to it ruclips.net/video/wPmqLEvcEpk/видео.html
There is a wire connected to the front for power and the hose on the back is for exhaust. Is there a hose somewhere too? Can you give us the time stamp?
This was built in 2006 when electric tools were not as good. If you check out the Alert Station Cribs episode we did they just purchased some electric Hurst tools to add to their trucks, they just haven't put them on yet.
Greetings from Japan. I am a firefighter of Tokyo Metropolitan Fire Department. I just shared this video with my colleagues and we unanimously agreed this HRV is now the wet dream of our entire station. Our HRVs (which we refer as Hyper Rescue Vehicle) have similar equipments but not as comprehensive as the one in the video. We’ll need two different types of HRV to match the equipments equipped in this one. However, we do have more equipments and supplies that are specifically for earthquake search&rescue and hazardous materials situation. It’s fascinating to observe the difference between HRVs in the US and Japan! Wondering does all HRV in fire departments of United States are similar to this? Or this is just happen to be the few outstanding ones? Excellent video! Stay safe.
Thanks for watching! Yeah this rescue is definitely one of the nicest ones we have seen. Most rescues have most of the same equipment, but they might only have two or three hurst tools. This truck is so well equipped because of the area and hazards they deal with
do you have fire fighting gears/ fire fighting equipments or medical equipmets supplies? I hope you can donate to us! Im a fire volunteer in philipines
@@HeroesNextDoor Randolph Manooth said when Fire Departments started going to the bigger box rescue units that were also Ambulances, paramedics did not like it. They would tell him at conventions they would pull up and people thought it was an ambulance and wanted to know where the paramedics were. The public was also expecting to see Squad 51 pull up.
How can this rescue truck have a walk in from where those 5 seats were when yiu just walked all around showed us the compartments because yiu said you can pull the draws from on side to the next weird .
weird...our HRV's in Germany cost like...half as much unless they are for a specialized Department, the stuff that's on this particular one is pretty similar to what we have on ours...I know everything costs like 3 times as much in the USA, but it would be very hard vor a VFD or combination Department to get permission to purchase a 1 million dollar rig lol
Might also be because this vehicle is supposed to handle all kinds of rescue e.g. water, trench, hydraulic cutters while other countries might instead have different vehicles for different kinds of rescue
Hierzu muss man allerdings auch erwähnen, dass die Einsatzbelastung im Gegensatz zu einer FFW in Deutschland sehr hoch ist. Das Einsatzgebiet ist recht klein und hat "nur" ca. 5.000 Einwohner. Dennoch liegt die Einsatzzahl bei ca. 450-500 Einsätzen im Jahr. Die Einsatzbelastung der zweiten Feuerwache ist sogar im Schnitt etwas höher (ohne Medizinische Einsätze, da diese auch RTWs beheimaten). Ebenfalls sollte man im Hinterkopf behalten, dass wie im Video erwähnt, ein recht großer Steinbruch, eine Eisenbahnstrecke und ein "Autobahnabschnitt" teil des Einsatzgebietes ist.
Actually, pretty much is everything is cheaper in the United States and you get much more for your money. You can't compare the 3rd world rigs in Germany to this.
What is with the 8 man cab and three separate extrication reels, for a volunteer department that is responding with one or two per apparatus? All the gadgets are great, but manpower puts out fires and conducts rescues, not gadgets
They have a lot more than 2 volunteers show up. Also they are not an engine company, Downingtown is split into two separate Fire companies so they respond to rescues.
@@HeroesNextDoor I understand that; but since they are probably responding with one or two on the apparatus, with the remainder of personnel arriving on scene piecemeal, by private or individual vehicles, the 8 &10 man cabs are not necessary. That piecemeal arrival also obviates the need for multiple reels to conduct simultaneous operation. Both in theory, and in practice, operations become sequential, not simultaneous. That is problematic in an all volunteer agency, where fire and rescue response are time sensitive. Unless they are waiting to assemble at the firehouse before responding on the apparatus en masse, (which I pray they are not for the public's sake) arrivals will be staggered, and consequently operations become sequential, not simultaneous. I never suggested that they were an "engine company," it is obvious that the apparatus is a heavy rescue.
Can someone tell me if they would seriously use every single thing on that truck? Aren't most firemen doing basic things like car rescues and health emergencies? This seems like overkill but I'm not an expert so I don't know.
It’s overkill until you need it. The heavy lift airbags were purchased because they got in a situation where they needed them and didn’t have them. They respond to a lot of calls and having all that equipment make it easier and quicker to perform rescues.
For sure, but they have an engine and ladder and the neighboring stations have a lot more engines. This rescue has a lot of specialty equipment that a lot of other stations don’t have.

Funny state of the art tricks equipment etc but every rescue show you see thry all say the pay sucks.
Ok
Absolute fantastic heavy rescue unit. Best ive seen so far to be honest. Can literally respond to more or less every type of rescue emergency.
Glad you like it!
Wow, this thing can run fires, car crashes, ice rescues, water rescues, EVEN TRAIN DERAILMENTS. This is the ultimate rescue co.
Wow, that’s a lot of rescue equipment.
With the amount of tools and equipment on that truck, I was not expecting to see that large of a walk in area. This rescue rivals Rescue 1, FDNY.
I love it!!! There’s a lot of stuff in there, probably one of my favorite rescue’s I ever seen!
Yeah they have everything you could possibly need!
My 5th son is in the Airforce and is a Firefighter. He would love this.
That is truly an awesome apparatus! Every county in the United States should have at least one like it.

Record a tour of the ladder truck at this station
We could get that to happen
How often dose that truck leave Quarters
fairly often because of the specialty equipment they have
@@HeroesNextDoor the rescue truck by me probably goes out weekly because it responds to the CO and Gas calls
Personally I don't like how it's a yellow tho I can understand it helps to see it, not sure if there's another reason
Why does the rescue have windows on that "hump" in the roof?
Just to let light in so it’s not super dark in the cab
Do a tower truck next
We are working on doing some more soon! We did a ladder over at West Whiteland if you have not seen that yet! Here is the link to it ruclips.net/video/wPmqLEvcEpk/видео.html
