It was actually a very good response time for a retained fire station. Retained firefighters have to live within a 5-minute drive from the station. These guys might even have been in bed when the call came in! A five to eight minutes turnout time is not uncommon for a retained unit.
***** I agree buddy - as an ex retained firefighter myself from watching this clip it was actually very quick at under 3 mins for the fire appliance to roll out of the bay doors.
Two Dennis's and a Mercedes pickup truck...quite an interesting roster of vehicles.
Nice catch there.
I like WSFRS's appliances, there color is rather interesting.
Great video rare appliance the Dagger.
Yeh I was lucky my friend was retained at Petworth.
What's the difference between the dagger and the more common sabre
Joe McCann Dagger is a lot smaller with a different chassis and slightly more basic.
Forgive me but where is this?
Petworth
+RTTV VIDS certainly is.
slow turn out, just like trumpton
