Lol must be fun manuvering through town with that monster sutphen TL
Mike La nice truck tho
Love those Sutphen rigs and the yellow. Rescue 75...you had that turn easy. No need to reverse.
the rescue in particular didn't need to back up, if you pause at 3:43 you'll see there was about 3-5 feet from the curb to his front wheel, he for sure could have made the turn.
I noticed that also. Good to be safe👍
@@pipesmoker4238 I get what you're saying, but the more time you have to spend turning around in the middle of the road disrupting the flow of traffic, the more dangerous it becomes. Making one swing in a few seconds and being on your way is much safer for your crew and everybody around you.
When I started in 1973 ,one of our Instructors stated: "There is no such thing as a bad volunteer fire company....just some are so much better than others!"
Time to either modify/move the station or get the far shoulder of the road widened so the trucks can get out of the station easier. Great video and nice looking trucks.
Thanks! Modifying the station or moving it would probably be too expensive. And there isn't too much space to widen the road, only a few feet and then there are railroad tracks. The problem is the way the station was built on that slight angle, it makes it really hard for the trucks to make that turn.

We moved out of tight quarters of a station before I was even a member at my department. With updated apparatus and the needs changing we couldn't fit in the old station. Now our firehouse is out of an old warehouse building and we have probably one of the biggest/roomiest squad bays around. A lot of the city volunteer stations around here aren't so fortunate and literally have to spec each truck to the bay size. They've had temporary trucks due to serious repair needed that are small so they can fit it inside but not able to fit all the equipment adequately. Needless to say, old warehouses make excellent firehouses. You have office space, lounge area, radio room, and we even have a commercial kitchen/hall that we rent out. Actually all of our training in the squad bay we do, we almost never have to pull the trucks out
Love the yellow livery on those engines very unique you see the greenish yellow rigs a lot. But these bright yellow ones are rare
Yeah I like the yellow too, especially with the black on the newer rigs. Thanks for watching!
Lovely rigs, beautiful graphics and great lighting :)
Thanks!
Nice color instead of the same old BORING red. That Color stands out better than red.👍😁😎
You don't often see yellow fire trucks in America, these looked wonderful.
All your videos are excellent, please keep them coming.
Greetings from England.
Thank you! They are actually more common than you'd think.
Yellow FD trucks all over the place
The best trucks are yellow. All those red ones are for guys that just wanna look pretty.
They should have cops stationed around every firehouse. When trucks have their lights on or worse their sirens at the foot of their driveway and people do not know how to stop to let them out and then possibly in their way and don’t know to pull over for emergency vehicles.
The older truck in the middle is awesome. I love older fire trucks still in use
Looks to be around a 2001 sutphen sp 95
nice ass trucks but they most definitely need a bigger station
Thanks! They have a small sub station on the street behind the firehouse that houses their second engine. They recently sold it though and have not yet taken delivery of their new rig which is why you didn't see it respond in this video.
You guy better get road widen have to back up every time you go out is crazy
I love how they walk around without no sense of urgency..... Bet there response time is horrible.
1st engine out within a couple minutes, truck out within 5. They likely need to have a full crew on every apparatus to respond. For a vollie dept, this was a pretty good response time. Not every dept can roll with whatever they want.
Like to see u do better
Keyboard firefighters.
Yeah, let's run around like headless hens, that would be so much better.
All trucks went out with good sized crew in less than 6, I'd say that's a good response, slow and steady insures no injuries and making sure shits done right
Never seen Orange lights on a fire engine before. And it's unusual to have blue ones on the rear too. Also I believe motorists who fail to yield to emergency vehicles should receive a ban, a fine and a good kicking.
Orange lights, usually referred to as "amber" are pretty common. Most fire apparatus has at least an amber traffic bar on the back. And rear-facing blue lights are becoming increasingly pretty popular too, at least around here. Thanks for watching!
Oh the Chicago fire department has green and red lights
Very nice catches
Thanks!
What I don’t understand is why some of these departments don’t get a tiller unit. It takes so long to get the quint of of the station.
It just wouldn't be practical. Aside from getting out of the firehouse, most of the streets in their district are navigable with the tower and having a tiller requires a second driver which can be difficult for a lot of these departments who are pressed for manpower. Thanks for watching!
wow great video man!
Thanks!
On the squad...wig wag headlights 1st warning light u see,better than l.e.d. cheap 10.00$ switch👀👀way underated,❗❗ wigwag spotlights now,sick👀
Move the ladder to the far end bay it could swing sharper to the right and still turn to the left ok needs to be where engine 88 is at
Not really because if they turn left that's even more time wasted its probably there for that reason
What messes me up cars r still wizzing by when u c this engine with light on.W.T.F. is wrong with people y r people so fuckin ignorant its a shame.What happed 2 kindness its still out there u just gotta try more it will catch back on.......
there must be sth wrong when the Ladder Truck can't even get out of the station without reversing in order to manage the turn. Why not purchase it with rear-steering axle? With all that space on the road and in front of the bays I guess some Tower Ladders here would be able to drive complete circles without a problem
One of the most beautiful trucks I ever seen. Great video pal, keep it up.
Thanks!
I don't understand why E88 sat there for approx for 1:30, they seemed to have a crew & there were enough people at the station....I was just curious, if there was a issue we couldn't see?? Great Vid & nice looking apparatus.
Thank you! I just reviewed the footage and it looks like they rolled only a few seconds after the last guy got in.
I truly hope this is not a paid department as my volunteer department gets out quicker than this.
Its a 100% volunteer department. I happen to think they were out the door pretty quick; I think it was under 4 minutes from the time the tones went out until the engine hit the road. And besides, everybody has good and bad days. Its great that you guys can consistently get out quickly, but I'm sure you have days where that's not the case. Not to mention you only have one video to judge this department off of. There's no reason to be so negative.
It was like watching ketchup comeout
LowHudEmergency The fact they are already geared up and have the trucks on and it still took them 4 minutes to get out? Seems like slow poking to me.
@@tylerkline962 You 100% have no idea what they were doing. With my department, we cannot roll until it is confirmed. There are instances where we do but until that structure fire becomes that confirmed working fire, you're staying place.
FireFighterProdigy I’m in Pennsylvania, I’m not sure of your whereabouts or your bylaws but that rule is not beneficial, yes in many instances it’s false alarm and it would be unnecessary for the trucks to leave the floor, but come on, you’re in the fire service, you know what time means and how crucial the golden minutes are if it’s a worker.
Nice videos and i like the lights on them
Thank you!
There's just something beautiful about a Sutphen Mid Mount.
Leather Forever until you find out every 10 operating hours it’s down for maintenance
wholy fuck, 4 mins to get three trucks out, and they can't even turn, lol.
Great Catch Mate!👍
Thanks!
The response time is absolutely horrible
First engine out within two, maybe three minutes of the tones? Actually very good for a 100% volunteer department.
LowHudEmergency Still seems really slow to me. Within 4 minutes there shouldn't be anyone left in thr station.. Well depending on the call of course
Evan Dodson damn they are slow
Within 4 minutes where I live you might have 2 people AT the station, let alone out of it.
calling out responding with in 3 mins is a fairly standard amount of time before the station would get a response check from dispatch & in my area, they would alert the next closest station if no one replies.
rescue 55 op needs to learn the size of his truck, he had more then enough clearance
Great vid! How are things on the G.B.FD?
Thanks! Things are going well, thanks for asking.
Is a utility truck to carry the rest of the crew don't think I ever seen one
Utility is a very general term. They are usually vehicles to carry extra equipment and/or manpower if needed, like in this case. They are very common. Thanks for watching!
Sweet catches!
Thanks!
🚨 Hello firefighters friends🚒 Bonjour les amis des pompiers🚒 greetings fromFrance🚨 Have a nice day🚨thumb up 291
Why the delay for any fire and i have never been a fireman but i have voluntered with The Red Cross Fire and Emergency Support Sevice
It's a volunteer department, they have to wait for volunteers to arrive at the station.
@@LowHudEmergency Ok thanks I wasn't being offensive
when will the young kid get to go on calls with you guys?
That response time is actually pretty good. Coming from a large rural department with 126 square miles and one station they are pretty good.
Those colors on the trucks work ! Normally I’m not a fan of yellow Fire Trucks but the accent colors with yellow look good !!
I love this video great catch👍
Thanks!
That don't make no kind of since they have to go through all that to get out of that station that is putting people lives at risk that is taking time from there response time and they r all cramed in that little station. Like that they have no damb room to move around in there
Tight turns for those trucks! Very nice video
Thanks!
thanks!
Slow moving out of the station man my fire department we get out faster then that
Good for youuuuuuuuuuu..😉😉😉
A FULL STATION RESPONDING
That’s a lot of members in all of those rigs, nice!
They were about to leave for a drill when this call came in. Thanks for watching!
@@LowHudEmergency Np, and okay!
Got to agree with other posts, move the station, having to reverse not only 1 but 2 appliances to get out is a joke.
The response time is Really bad sorry but you have to do better then that fires and emergencies dont wait
Love the livery on this departments rigs! Also didn't know Sutphen made engines, thought they only did towers and ladders! Gonna have to pay more attention I guess! One question, is R75 a rescue pumper or wet rescue?
Sutphen makes all different kinds of fire apparatus, but they are definitely known for their tower ladders. I'd consider Rescue 75 to be a rescue pumper. It has a full sized pump, 500 gallon water tank, and a decent amount of hose. Wet rescues generally have small pumps, carry very little water, and very little hose.
Horrible is Right that truck that came out last was Terrible are theses Reg Fire fighters wow
Outstanding
Thanks!
mine is Los santos fire department
Thornwood needs a fire station where one doesn't have to back up when existing the station.
Why did Rescue 75 back up? No reason to.
Does anyone else have a problem with blue lights on American fire trucks? That is just so European.
where's theproblem? IMO that statement is as stupid as e.g. saying that wail/yelp sirens are only an American thing. Both are used on both sides of the pond
Sweet catches!
Thanks!
Is thornwood a volunteer department
Yes.
Great catch man.
Thank you!
I LIKE THE TOWER LADDER 1
A+
steering back axel on that ladder would do wonders.
Can you do glynn county Georgia fire department responding that's my job I work for the gcfd
I just watched this response as one of his most popular videos and it was on the front page of his channel, I looked up your department for some odd reason your department has some badass patches I love the designs on them. Station 8 was my favorite with the Phoenix on it.
Walking around with zero urgency is unacceptable. Especially on a reported house fire
Ever heard the phrase, Slow is smooth, Smooth is fast? Its not about zero urgency, its about restrained urgency. Firefighters would love literally nothing more than to run to their trucks and go screaming down the road full tilt, and many have done so....right into an early grave. Fact of the matter is rushing causes more accidents and deaths than stopping to think for 5 seconds does. This department did everything right here and if you don't believe me, go watch some videos of the FDNY. One of the best in the nation and they average a 2 minute response from time of call to leaving the house. They walk to their rigs too.
Awesome Catches!
Thanks!
What state are these guys come from they have beautiful apparatus
New York, as stated in the video and the description.
Doesn't Thornwood have 2 engines?
Yes, the second one is kept in the small substation behind the main station, however in this video they had just sold the old rig and had not yet taken delivery of the new one.
LowHudEmergency Oh, okay. Thanks. :)
No problem. Thanks for watching!
There absolutely not in a hurry to get to a fire
House done burnt down by the time they get there
Very nice! :D
Ok
Bigger is not always better
im happy i dont live in thronwood
pushout time is god awful
So the whole station
Question is rescue 75 technically a rescue engine or a squad like in the FDNY
Terms like "squad" often have different meanings in different places. I would consider Rescue 75 to be a rescue-engine. It carries rescue equipment but also has a pump and a water tank. It probably carries extremely limited HazMat equipment, but nothing to the extent the FDNY Squad companies carry.
LowHudEmergency ok my department has 3 engines 1 rescue a ladder and a tanker and one engine is a rescue engine that they sometimes call a squad
@@gabrielking3349 I've heard rescue-engines called "squads" as almost a slang term quite a lot around here. But in my county, there are requirements for apparatus to be truly designated as a squad, including carrying certain equipment and also being staffed with personnel who are certified at a certain level in HazMat, which many of the volunteer departments are not capable of fulfilling.
@@LowHudEmergency YEah, exactly. Areas I have been from in PA and NC, a squad is a general utility unit with some meical capability. I know ins ome areas a Squad is a full on heavy rescue. It's... Really the least standardized term in all of firefighting, tbh.
Yeah what LowHudEmergency said the FDNY’s fleets are mostly Seagrave and ferrara
Who ever needed help they would probably be dead because the firefighters took to long to gear up
I really don't understand why everybody thinks this is so long. Roughly four minutes to get the first engine out is actually pretty quick. Its an all-volunteer department; they have to wait for people to respond from home or work or wherever they may be when the call goes out.
LowHudEmergency what you just said touched me and now I agree because the ladder truck and the engine had to go out and then back up and then go out again so I’m sorry
I love those yellow fire engines⭐
They need to widen the road for those poor guys lol
Glad i dont live there
Nice Pierce truck.
Amazing video mate!
Thank you!
wow they really pack those trucks in there tight
Thanks for watching!
Nice great work
Thanks!
Another unit 5:04?
H.E.L.P. truck - roadside safety and maintenance vehicles that patrol the highways around here. They assist with disabled motorists and accidents. Not related to the call. Thanks for watching!
Nice Great work
Thanks!
What's the hurry, it's not your house burning, over 2 minutes for the 1st truck to leave the hall, pretty lackadaisical.
Its a volunteer department, the firehouse isn't always staffed. There happened to be a handful of guys there because they were assembling to attend a drill with some neighboring departments, but often times there is no one there. So they were actually out much faster than average.
In our town there were 3 trucks, and one fireman always on site. He'd take the emergency call, crank the town siren, and head out right away with the first truck. All of the men kept their turnout gear in the trunks of their car; unless they were driving one of the other two trucks, they'd head straight to the incident. (Unless the station was on the way to the fire; then they'd hop on the truck if it hadn't left yet. If it had left, they'd continue on to the fire.)

Great looking trucks, atrocious response time,
I have to disagree, its a 100% volunteer department and that first engine was out within around three minutes of the tones. Thanks for watching!
LowHudEmergency ok I sure alright but, Hershey Pennsylvania volunteers (100% volunteers) they are moving with urgency and out the door in the same time a city fire department would be (keep in mind the are also in the middle of no where AND they also have to compete with tourists traffic soooo with that being said...this response time TO A STRUCTURE FIRE is very poor
Well to have the same response time as a career department, I would assume they always have manpower at the firehouse, which is not the case in most of the volunteer departments around here. Now in this particular video, I will admit that some members were at the firehouse when the call came in preparing to attend a drill, but they still had to wait for additional manpower to arrive. They will usually wait until they have a full crew before responding (to a reasonable extent), especially for a potential structure fire. Different places operate differently, and for most of the smaller volunteer departments around here, waiting four or five minutes before rolling a piece of apparatus is not uncommon.
LowHudEmergency ok fair enough, I didn’t take in consideration the manpower aspect and that is a good point so with that said I retract my harsh statement and extend my apology. STILL very nice looking trucks btw, I couldn’t decide between these colors or my departments 👌🏽
Awesome catch
Thanks!
NICE
Thanks!
Ooppss your trucks have a hard time making right turns. Love the color of them though.👍😁😎
Wow I'm so glad I don't live in that town house is probably burned down by now these people are slow
I love the yellow trucks. Wish more companies would go to them
Hate to live in this community...slower than a turtle and the house or Victims are dead waiting on these sloths!!!
I don't understand why everyone thinks this is so slow. Its a volunteer department, they have to wait for people to get to the firehouse before they respond.
I don't und the need for US trucks that are so big (except ariel ladder). Europe seems to be able to use fast nimble trucks without issue, carry a crew of five inside.
I've only ever worked with American fire apparatus and I can only speak from my experiences, but the larger apparatus seems to hold a lot more equipment, and particularly water, both of which are very important in manpower-strained rural fire departments, which unfortunately have become the majority of volunteer fire departments in the U.S. Also, it seems as though the cabs themselves are larger than European apparatus making them more comfortable and easier to put gear on while in route to an emergency. And outside of the older, larger cities, most of the country doesn't deal with the really narrow roads that a lot of Europe has to deal with. This video is a poor example because the firehouse was built at a bad angle, but for the most part, the apparatus doesn't struggle to navigate most of the roads around here.
Because Murica,......
Holy Smoke! Is this a paid FD? All should be fired!!!!!
No, this is a volunteer department. They have to wait for members to respond from home or work or wherever they may be. It may seem slow, but it really is not very.
ANYTIME TODAY!!!!!
Yellow?!
We have a lot of different colors around here. Thanks for watching!
Oh I REALLY LIKE THEM IN YELLOW
