Wow! Love seeing the 70's Ford fire engine racing down the county road to a fire scene. Pure old school fire fighting machine.
That's an Old Cal Fire Model 9 from the 70's to the 80's
5:50 that truck also old but it a international
We've got a pretty nice 1980s pumper/tanker. Problem is it's 2wd and the roads are dirt with 15%+ grades
I believe those were built up to the early 90’s I think 92 was the last year
That old ford was hauling ass. That was beautiful 🤣
That one old Fire Tender sure had some speed in it.. Damn thing came in at warp speed..🤣🤣🤣
A real heavy impact unit.
That Ford C Series is awesome! Great footage.
It's impressive to see it in service!
The Ford C cab is a Westates built fire engine. I think they were used by CDF/CALFIRE
Doing the best they can with what they've got. Good stuff!
Hey! They are proud and make due with what they have. From the looks of the equipment it looks like it is well taken care of!
Yes!
Actually noo
@@csxrailfanneraident8513 why not? If they are saving taxpayers money and still preforming well, what the hell?
@@erickaegi629 what do u mean by "saving taxpayers' money" the agency simply does not have the funds to upgrade. we don't live in the 70s anymore, modern fires require modern equipment.
@@zarmril tell that to one fire department, who refuses to give up their 1961 Howe fire engine to this day. This is because that Howe fire engine, can out pump any modern pierce with ease, they actually proved this at a country drill they did. This is important to them, in order to have as much water as they can get to fight the fire, as any fire department would want to have the same thing. I will have to find the video, but they did a wet down of the truck to celebrate 50 years of service many years ago, and to my knowledge, the truck is still going strong.
Edit: here is the video

great to see everyone RESPONDING to the call immediately
Good incident command, called for a lot of tanker support early and had the water supply to safely engage the fire.

They obviously take good care of their stuff - the oldest fire truck had been fully updated with some of the newest emergency lighting for better safety responding and on scene. Considering how much new trucks are and how limited many departments budgets are it makes sense to spend a little often to keep older fleet in safe working condition as long as it meets minimum performance standards to do the job adequately
Cool catches. The 1960s fire brigade called and they want their rig back lol
80's. It's not that old. They didn't start making the Model 9 until the mid-70's.
Judging by your phrasing of fire “brigade” im guessing you’re not familiar with American firefighting equipment take it from me I’d trust an 80’s pumper to keep going even after one of the newer ones broke down
There is nothing wrong with good working older equipment. When I went on the job I was assigned to an engine which was 24 years old. It was the best engine which I wver worked on. Could beat the newer engines hands down. Seagrave ran 60mph easily, pumped all day with no effort. Was a 12 cylander dual plug engine. Found a 68 Boardman on a Ford body. Is a 1500 gpm we arexgoingctovrestore and donate it to a very small townbthatcneeds it
@@kurtisdaywalt5719 I'm as American as apple pie
That STC BR6 looks BEAUTIFUL with those shiny chromes
Someone who actually uses the phrase code 3. Amazing.
Retired, 29 years of service to my community. I live in a rural area and we have been to many structure fires like this one. Ah, the memories!
Doing what they were made to do. Great catch, hope that the farmers didn't suffer from the lost of the barn .
That 3rd tanker sure was hauling the mail.
Great video! Loved seeing some older units
AGREED - That' why some smaller Fire Departments re-furbish their older trucks not only to keep them in service longer, but it is also ALOT cheaper then buying brand new one's.
My hometown Fire Department had an old 1970's Mack flat-front Fire Engine that served until 2008, then they sold it, GOD I MISS THAT TRUCK & MY SON DOES TOO.
Awesome catches I love the old bar lights !!
IMPRESSIVE CATCHESSSss!! Loved itttt
Would have been easy to set up a tender shuttle but then again every dept has different guidelines
We usually drop a 3,000 gallon portable tank and then rotate tankers to dump when needed. One high capacity engine draws from the tank and feeds smaller capacity engines to cover the zones. We have American Fire Apparatus, Spartan and Toyne equipment plus about 26 paid on call personnel.
Fantastic! Out here there are several departments still using the old trucks. I drove 2 different 70s Fords. They are pre-turbo years so the are slow but still pump hard.
Awesome catches!
Great video!
Sutter Co. BR6 looked homemade. I like that. Sac city even has some unusual units.
BR6 is a CDF (now Cal Fire) surplus ford "Model 9". The Model 9 was CDF's "interface" engine for many years and were mounted on Ford, IH, and at the end even had a Mack Renault chassis which was an abomination. www.fire.ca.gov/media/10688/model9.pdf .The early ones had that rear-facing open passenger area then they went to a 4 door cab in the late 80's if I remember right.
Love the Ford C Series. In my opinion it would have looked better if they would have left the original light bar on it but I do understand LEDs are much more efficient and visible.
Amazing amazing amazing!
5:56 my favorite light bar of all time
Excellent Video 👌
Nothing better than seeing ole Henry running down the road!
Dang! Lovely catch! BR6 sure is old
Awesome buddy😊
Got sum cool looking fire trucks
Water tender overload, nice video
Boys, there’s a much better way to do water ops and staging than that. Also nice model 9
Wow and awesome catches.
The Ford C Series would look better with the old style emergency light, keep safe everyone, this was a great video.
Nice catch!
Great video.
That old Ford... don't see any of them going at that speed ever .. A very well cared for machine. Looks like it just came off the line. Very impressive.
That little Ford cabover is pretty sweet.
Noticed some of the trucks don’t have that “steady”red that CA state law requires emergency vehicles to have. Never understood why CA is the only state that has that. I know that PA has laws requiring emergency vehicles to have 360 degree visibility and has to be mounted on the outside of the vehicle. State troopers were pulling over vehicles for not having just interior mounted LEDs.
4:25 Amazing catch!
@5:53 I was lovin that lightbar on the tanker
Until I started watching these and being from new england I never saw tanker fire truck before we have the ocean lakes ponds all over the place to tap into even boats for harbor water so no need for them but seeing how important they are to some area's of the country was cool fact to learn about and to see different dynamics of how that affects firefighting.
At our department we still use our Ford C Series, only use it for star team calls so it doesn’t go out too often, still a badass truck
Something about old firetrucks with leds on them idk but i love it
Is each Tanker dedicated to providing water supply to a particular Engine ?
I do like seeing the older 60s+ firefighting vehicles. Good catches!
When we have to run tanker ops we'll setup a portable pool and the tankers come in, drop into the pool, then drive to get refilled, come back, and dump again. The tankers will just keep running in a cycle of filling and dropping, while a pumper pulls from the pools and supplies the other apparatus. When done right, there will be a constant supply of water for the apparatus on scene. It take skilled command to do that though, putting water where it needs to go and not wasting it. Having enough tankers to keep a cycle going without getting backed up anywhere.
The C series ford and the Peterbilt are my 2 favs
Anyone there know how to draft ? I seen a great water source fairly close they could have drafted from
Fantástic
Wow!
I really don’t see “rare or old” trucks here, ‘cept’ for one
@PompierCanadien no some of the tankers are old and rare as i can clearly see.
@@2k_adriandagoat453 lol no they aren't really
6 Water Tender. Yes. No 7
I like old school fire truck that thay called in help poot out this fire
Any chance of a list of the vehicles, especially the Mack at 5:15?
Holy Tankers
4:38 that’s my favorite truck
Was that old cab over all wheel drive?
There is a lot going on with that Ford C cab. It’s all over the place.
Cool
Sure hope they got all the critters out of the barn.
Hopefully they learned from this !! Set up a pumper at the end of that road on main rd with 5 inch laid in with 2 portable ponds and dump tankers on main road instead of driving in quicker turn around !!
ouuuu this is interesting
I was a volunteer firefighter in the ruel area and suberbs lot more work in the ruel area.
So you make due! Besides barn fires are not modern fire scenes. You dont need a 300,000 $ truck to haul water when you have a older one that can do the same thing!
Why aren't they using portable dump tanks with tankers
How far does some of these units travel to get to scene like in miles as I'm just curious in area coverage your fire departments cover compared to here in the UK
This fire was near the junction of 3 counties so the first due units didn't have relatively far to go but those water tenders could have traveled 10-15 miles, if not more. Here in the west many rural departments can have response times to some areas of well over 30 -40 minutes, and during a wildland fire, fire apparatus can travel 8 hours or more just inside California to a large fire under our statewide mutual aid system
I dont know if your question was specific to this fire department or the United states in general. But in my area i could have no less then 25 engines and equal amount of ladders in about 15-20 minutes.
@@hihftydamn. That must be nice. Here at my place, for a structure fire not in "fire season", first due (usually a 1/O staffed squad) is 10 out, the 2nd due, a Vollie engine (that might have 2 on) is a few behind that, the 3rd due, a career 3/O Engine is about 5 after that then the is upwards of 30 out. IF a truck is dispatched, it's 35-40 minutes out, and I don't live in a real isolated area.
@@RandyCarpadusOuff yea i could not even comprehend the struggles and operations of how you guys would do things out there. I find it interesting seeing water shuttle operations, tankers and the volunteer aspect of things. Its a rarity in my parts.
@@hihfty both really as Im just curious , as where I live in Oxfordshire we have one water tanker and one Ariel platform ( ladder truck I believe there called in the states ) for the whole of the county
Tankers are usual trucks to see in places where fire hydrants are non-existent.
Neat
Heyy who is waching this in 2020 they were holing ass done the hiway
If it ain't broke don't fix it especially if the equipment is still fit for the job of one area can do just fine with a old unit then other areas that really need new ones can get priority
Am I the only one that notices that most of the tenders are newer but still have old rotating lightbars does anybody know why? Just a question
Take the old light bars off the old trucks to save money
BR6 is old enough to be grandfather.
mid 80's...
@@RandyCarpadus Still old by today's standards.
@@viperq by who's standards? I'd be willing to bet most of the volunteer departments in this ocuntry and many paid ones as well are running rigs this old and older.
@@viperq we still run 70's L8 and L9000 ford's and our 1968 Bean was just taking out of service last year to be replaced with a 90's international
Doesn't matter how the water gets there as long as it gets there, if that truck could talk it'd have a story or two....
Someone still runs a C Series?
Trucks in the first clip (like 2003-12 trucks) are actually very common, with vfds than you might think.
Maybe 9.
Don't make them like they used to flat front Ford is cool better if Diesel
Hey it ant code3 code 2
All of these fire trucks for a tiny barn! No wonder my taxes are so high!
You know something's horribly wrong when they have to bring in Grandpa's old trucks... It's even worse when they have to bring grandpa out of the nursing home, too.
BR (brush) 6 is one of the county's front line wildland rigs. State surplus.
Bring grandpa's to fight fire. Yes because the pansy ass grandkids don't wanna volunteer
