I've seen this fire video on ShapPhoto's channel and it's cool to see it from different angles. Seeing the old school snorkel go to work is pretty amazing. This looked like one HELL of a big fire.
STEVE EXCELLENT EXCELLENT. IT'S ON MY TOP 10 LIST.. THIS VIDEO TRULY MADE ME FEEL I WAS ON THE SCENE YOU WERE SO CLOSE. THANKS FOR DOING SUCH A GREAT JOB ON THIS SCENE ! YOUR BUDDY KEVIN---*
2:12 I love the hard suction hose used chicago style on a pressurized hydrant, not many examples of this and very few departments use this technique but the large diameter lower pressure hydrant design of Chicago makes them capable of amazing flows with skill. Cool and thank you.
MultiMonster69 Turret wagon or deluge wagon has 2 large deck guns to throw a heavy stream of water, hose wagon come from engine 26 & engine 81's house the old snorkel is from engine 35's house, turret from engine 108 & engine 104
Turret wagons are no longer in service the CFD removed them from service when the Chicago civil defense went out of service because the current wagons were used only by the civil defense.
ChicagoScanner nope not true as why the dispatcher did not send one when he was requesting one he asked a turrent wagon in a form of a questin thats why one was not there.
ChicagoScanner and by the way there very slow to even drive as the trucks were made in the 40s and by the way nobody makes them anymore and by the way they don't have the green light on it which makes it not up to Chicago code.next time check your info your trying to say that companies are still making turrent wagons when they don't anymore current wagons are no match for today's technology.
old warehouse, boarded up windows, either a bad electrical works or a transients sausage burning out of control. Looks hot. While investigating, how do they assess the flashover risk with enclosed brick housings like this?
Hose wagon is a hose carrier, needed if you're running lines in and/or from distant hydrants. I'm guessing that "turret wagon" is an alternative term for deluge unit? Not the usual CFD terminology, maybe invented on spot based on other rigs being called wagons?
David Dunn there no longer in service the CFD removed them from service when the Civil defense went out of service because turrent wagons were only used by the Chicago civil defense anyways they would have been no help as they are no match to what a snorkel can do today.
David Dunn this is explained by how one did not show up when the firefighter requested for one also explained by how the dispatcher kinda said a turrent wagon in a form of a question.
"Requesting the spare snorkel outta 35's house" Love hearing that.

I'd like to see longer videos. I know these last longer than 10 minutes. I live watching CFD work the box.
Classic Chicago job, you don't get much of these anymore... superb work, Steve!!
Chicago is real heavy on that PPV I see. Ive seen that PPV rig in a few videos already. Good tactic.
Beautiful editing You covered this perfectly. God bless my brothers in fire.
Was listening to this early on Sunday. Great job brother! Will pass this on to the younger guy's. Thanks BIG DOG !!
Superb job as always, Steve!

The official term is Mobile Ventilation Unit (MVU), but I love the other name they use for it, "Smoke Ejecter".
Now that's a ventilation fan right there.

there was a large fire in that area back in 1966 zimmerbox factoty fire it was on elston ave but what hundred block
such as Light Wagon (9-1-2), Foam Wagon (6-3-1)
In the last couple of years--why so few videos on the C F D.???.
3 years later and a 2-11 happens across the street from this...
How in the heck did the fire start next door to the original call? Flying burning debris?
Hmmm does the city not have scba
would the MVU be considered a primary appartus?
2-1-9 is requesting a Turret Wagon, we have one right? lol
+ChicagoScanner 272 call this office...what the hell is a turret wagon 272.

Its rare for them to send out the hose wagon
How to you get the radio trafic
Likely a police scanner. I believe CFD was on VHF analog at that time before switching to UHF P25.
A turret wagon? We have one right😂😂😂😂
No Sprinkler systems "
No, it's a Special.
what is a turret wagon? what are the duties of the hose wagon and where does it and that real old lookin snorkel respond from?
Big John is retired now right?
all turret wagons are in reserve

They're fighting a 311 right now.
Bet they wish they had it.
ruclips.net/video/cMnQawc1b0o/видео.html. Here’s a video of the turret wagon at a different fire. Chicago has had them since the sixties
