That USAR 71 is a beast! Nice catch.
Very good! First time I ever saw any Alhambra rigs, they all look amazingly clean and well maintained.
Look at that awesome big USAR truck!
Nice budget...
Resident of Alhambra here, always Glad to see videos like this. Thank you
Since you're from Alhambra, will they let you go down the slide in the fire station?
Great catch. That ALF USAR is a monster beast.
I’m proud to live literally down the block from where this was filmed 😌 nice area to live in
That is thee biggest rescue vehicle I’ve ever seen!!
Real American🙂
That rescue looks awesome. It would never work on much of the back roads around where I live but dang nice unit!
Great Day in the morning!!! That's a HUGE USAR truck!!
Great Catches! that USAR looks amazing
You got lucky and caught a rare response from their USAR rig
indeed, didn't even know they were running it until they all got in it for that call. thanks for watching.
crazy that you caught this, awesome video, keep it up!
It's always interesting to see other countries rigs and vehicles. Over in the UK we used to see level crossing lights used to stop traffic outside the stations so the crews and vehicles could roll out easily. Haven't seen any used in a long time. Beautiful rigs by the way 👍😎
Those level crossings isn't everywhere in the UK. Here in Nothern Ireland, NIFRS doesn't have any special lights to stop traffic for the appliances can get out.
We have those lights outside the fire station in Huddersfield, with two flashing reds which mean stop and a steady amber when the traffic can almost set off again. I believe when they are active the traffic lights on the nearby junction turn green to clear traffic from the front of the station. The engines can just sail out.
I've seen ones at Stanwell, Sunbury (rolled out of that one a couple of times!) Heathrow, and somewhere in Hampshire. We are talking many years ago though. I think they are a great tool and let you roll easily out to a shout.
@@monikaw1179 thank you Monika 👍
@@simongreer6179 you're absolutely right Simon, they aren't everywhere here in the UK. I was just thinking how they might be useful elsewhere in the world, but of course not every station would need them.
I’d love to drive that USAR unit! I love a challenge!
Wow! That's a lot of rigs in one house Nice!
Sweet catch!
That Rescue massive truck was really impressive. We have nothing like that in my country.
But how is that truck going to turn onto narrow streets? If a car had parked in that red zone, that truck wasn't making that turn.
I never knew there was articulated rescue trucks! That's so cool!!
just a tractor trailer rig. Pretty much the same set up a lot of soda vendors use to make deliveries to the stores. As for that Ladder truck the rear end of the trailer is able to be steered around tight corners when needed
Just subbed and followed from both of my accounts! Nice videos!
Great video of Al the hard working Men and women just remember be safe out there and watch all your surroundings
Wow nice!!
Amazing
I see Q's on the front bumpers but all I hear is ambulance sirens lol.... Beautiful rigs and great video!
some place you can't run the Q's due to how loud they are. I know we couldn't use them in the residential areas unless it was a really busy intersection. But got to love them when they are on :)
@@dons8122 in my 30 years of doing this from small towns to medium sized cities I never heard of restrictions like that. I don't think I ever even knew how to turn an electric siren on lol
Truth!! What kind of FD responds without a Fed Q even if it has one mounted in the grill....SMH
Jeez that Tech Rescue is awesome!
GREAT CATCH!!!!!!!!
Great catches, and I am puzzled with the monstrous USAR rig covering for a tillered truck… Both rigs from my experience typically are equipped much much differently. It’s like taking a brush truck to a high rise fire!
What do you mean? The USAR is not covering for a tiller, it’s just a rescue rig that drives as a tractor trailer.
@@Mark-em5zm USAR 71 was running in place of Truck 71 due to the truck being out of service for mechanical issues for a couple of hours that day. they do not have a reserve truck so USAR it is.
@@Mark-em5zm check out the description, it was running in place of Truck 71…
Nice catch
What a nice catch a tiller truck and a trailer usar truck what more can you ask for.
Nice
Nice catch there!
I have never seen a fire truck like that big of a truck what it’s used for. We have a near that big of a truck in dk used for command station at bigger scenarios like terror or big industries fires.
- Hi from Denmark
this is a technical rescue / urban search and rescue apparatus, there is also a mobile command post in the cab. thanks for watching!
"LIKE A GLOVE"
An ambulance with boat horns, I like that ! 👌
That is standard in the US. I've never driven one without them. They are extremely helpful clearing intersections!
At that size you might as well just send 2 trucks. That’s a massive truck!
Awesome
Them tiller truck are savage !! Thay could house five family's here in England 🤣
The USAR sounds like it's powered by a gas turbine but I love special unit truck's like that
Nice and how come non of the trucks used the rear amber light bars?
Would love to see I side all those compartments on the USAR.
I bet that's fun having to back that trailer up
fortunately, they have a drive-thru apparatus floor at this station but i'm sure the situation has presented itself haha. thanks for watching.
Must have a lot of big and varying accidents requiring a huge range of equipment.
Technical rescue that big.
when the fire department gets dispatch is the calls dispatch digitally?
No pedals for the Q? lol
So can the tractor drawn trucks be split up for maintenance, either part being replaceable, or use conventional truck with hydraulic kit? Nifty things, but the designs seem a bit strange.
from the looks of it use the truck and trailer can be disconnected if you pause the video at about 2:18 you can see a Landing gear foot that is use to support the trailer while it is disconnected from the trailer
Just out of curiosity, but what type of truck is at 1:50? I’ve never seen that type before.
That will be a rescue truck
Super car! Pozdrawiam serdecznie from Poland!
Getting parts for that truck must be difficult since LaFrance is out of business.
What? Lafrance is out?
Wowwwww!!!
How big is the station
That USAR rig is way too big for responding from that station.
it's the biggest station in that 4-station department, and likely the only one that could accommodate apparatus this size. thanks for watching.
Engine 51 /Squad 51/Quint 51
Donde esta Randall Mantooth and Kelvin Tighe ?
Wow that didn't look like every second counts.
In Los Angeles Ca. ?????❤️👨🏻🚒🚒🙏🇺🇸
I like the usra fire truck
That’s a lot of beer
Hey, I live in Alhambra. I know where that is.
How far is Alhambra from LA?
right next door. the west side of Alhambra borders Los Angeles City's El Sereno Neighborhood. thanks for watching!
@@FB1ResponseVideos 73s isn’t far from 47s
Ready Freddy rescue! Whew whew whew!
I think i saw it down my lane
I love America God only knows I love America
That USAR IS AN IMPRESSIVE RIG. IS IT AN ALF?
that's correct, thanks for watching
@@FB1ResponseVideos AWESOME RIG too bad they went out of business.
@@andrewlorentz685 according to a FF Wiki, it is a 2005 ALF/Hackney tractor drawn rescue.
@@KKEM641 Thank you so much for the info.
They need a tiller USAR
I was thinking the same thing.
That USAR rig is ridiculous and oversized. In the UK, we split everything that would carry between 3 pods on hook loaders (prime movers). This means equipment can be more specifically requested and can be left at a scene while the prime mover returns to get more pods.
That is the difference between the States and the UK your Terrain is so different compares to ours. Some places you can go from Mountains to ocean side in 30 minutes or even less. the the deep Canyons in some places. What you may call a Mountain here would be a child's sled hill in the winter. Plus a station could be 30-40mins away if it is a rescue operation it is better to have all your gear at once instead of wasting time waiting for another truck to arrive (hopefully) with the right gear. So to have a truck run back and forth from the scene to the station is a waste of time and man power. So what works in your area will not work well in ours maybe in smaller cities here but over there you need the more nimble trucks.
@@dons8122 Theres usually 1-3 prime movers and 5 pods at each station. If they need all 5 then they come from multiple stations.
@@dons8122 Each Pod is specific to requirements , The main types of pod carried are as follows (Note some UK fire services also have their own service specific pods like the Scottish Fire & Rescue Service Flood rescue pod) :
Pod 1 : High Volume Pump (HVP) This is a pod which carry’s a submersible pump and up to 1.3km of 6 inch supply hose. There is a sub variation of this unit which carry’s a further 2.4Km of 6 inch supply hose.
Pod 2 : Major Rescue Unit (MRU) This pod carry’s multiple sets of extreme tonnage cutters, spreaders, rams etc heavy lift air bags, railway bogeys, heavy duty’s struts, truck platforms, lighting, saws, drills, ropes
Pod 3 : Major Rescue Support Unit (MRSU) This is a flatbed pod rather then an ISO container style pod like the previous mentions. This carry’s whatever is needed. (Tools, lumber, vehicles, etc) Normally however it will contain a Small 4x4 buggy with a plow on the front.
Pod 4 : Mass Decontamination Unit (MDU) This is an ISO Pod and comes in 3 + 1 Main variants. The +1 is a Separate unit called the IRU, which is a HGV with curtain sides. This carry’s a set of portable Decon tents, as well as a set of Hit Zone Disrobing and Green Zone Robing Units which are used to strip casualties of contaminated clothing, before deconing the person, then the robing unit gives them fresh clean boiler suit and shoes so they ain’t walking round naked.
The other 3 pods are again ISO containers which are set up in the following:
Pod 1 = More decon tents
Pod 2 = More disrobing units
Pod 3 = More robing units
Pod 5 = is a BA (SCBA) Support unit, it transports pre filled cylinders to the scene where it then can refill any used cylinders at a long duration incident.
Pod 6 = USAR A pod , this is separate to the Major Rescue Unit pod although they work together often, as it contains search and rescue equipment, like sensors, microphones, cameras, special drills and saws
Pod 7 = USAR B pod carry’s a variety of lumber to be used as supports to falling buildings / Structures
Pod 8 = Bulk Foam Pod (BFP) is either an ISO container or a flatbed which holds Tanks of foam concentrate ready to be mixed with water.
Pod 9 = Major Incident Command Pod (MIC) This is exactly what it sounds like, a pod which can be taken to a long duration scene to provide a static command point for communications, planning, briefing etc
Each pod can be loaded onto a transporter within 10mins and be deployed in a similar time frame. This allows the scene commander to use specific equipment without having to take an entire rescue truck out of service, allowing the other equipment pods to be taken elsewhere if needed at the same time. Each service will also have multiple of each pod, usually between 2-5 of each type of pod sometimes more.
There are also many transporters so more then 1 pod can be transported to a scene at a time. It is usually around 3/4 the number of pods across the service is the amount of transporters are available to transport.
Hope this helps your understanding
Same applies to NL: All special equipment is carried in standard hook pods which can alles be transported by civil trucks (eg from construction firms).
BTW: If I'm well informed, this concept is a Dutch invention from the late 70'
WTF Technical Rescue Heavy truck.
That looks like some Federal Funds...right there.
Alhambra finest. I wouldn't want to live near the F.D.
I noticed something rather strange in this video. Alhambra is in California. According to California state law, all emergency vehicles must be be equipped with a steady forward facing red light and a flashing rear facing amber light. For each of the vehicles responding, I did not see any had a steady red light or a flashing amber light. I wonder if the state law for emergency vehicles has changed.
It seems like they did. See the lights above the headlight, they look like flickering but it’s just the LED showing up like that on camera. It is likely a steady burn.
Some cameras don't catch a study burn
Not exactly the fastest response in history.
The steady burn some of those had s ugly AF
FKING NICE DOG,
Who else read "Alabama"
😂
That heavy rescue is ridiculous. If you really needed all that split it into two rigs.

Pitiful….like I’ve said before, Big trucks need to use the Q !!!! “Q”
That USAR tiller is the most useless looking thing ever
Jesus saves
I don't get running a tiller truck to ems or auto accidents why roll a 750 thousand dollar truck to calls like that ?? That's what rescues are for or pick up trucks with box's on them waste of apparatus I think
Running tillers keep engines in service, and they also have much more extraction tools on board for in this case, a roll over. It’s not really a waste.
Here where we are at it's the closest unit that's available we have a paramedic squad but that's just one for a 5 station department so it's whoever is available and is closer.
That USAR monstrosity is the most useless piece of equipment I've ever seen. Absolutely, and totally impractical.
