Good spot, it must be otherwise it would have been announced.

@TSEmergency it would be absolutely amazing and by reboot I mean more of a continuation from around the georgiadis era, so same characters obviously played by new actors with modern production, but keeping the classic writing style that made it successful. Soap drama to a minimum and no lecturing of any kind, except for fire safety etc 😂 Could even have cameos from old cast members say the actor for Colin features as an officer in the control room, still injured from his final shout. Geoff and Vernon meeting in the ship aground, George working as an instructor in the fire fighting academy gym and training grounds etc....
Amazing footage! I'm from America and I want to know what the "A" means or stands for on the trucks, since they say A242 instead of pump 242 or something like that
Thank you! So the letter before the numbers in the callsign indicates the area of the city the appliance is located, we refer to that area as a ‘Command’, almost like a District in the US. ‘A’ is Northern Command, so that’s the area of Central North London. There are five commands overall. ‘E’ is South East Command, ‘F’ is Eastern Command (North East), ‘G’ is Western Command (North West) and ‘H’ is South West. London is divided into these commands for better organisation and communication essentially, since the appliances in a given command mostly only work with/encounter others from the same command. But of course trucks from different commands meet and work together at incidents. Hope this helps!
@@gazbrucia1654 The video doesn’t really do it justice, but as I was filming, I noticed the vans going rather fast, and they blasted the bullhorn when they saw the machine pulling out. Close call indeed!
@@okay3256 Oh it was A212 and A242 announced. I’m not entirely sure why seeing as Paddington’s machine wasn’t on station at the time. Thanks for watching!
Thanks! I’m not sure about fire appliances, but I have definitely noticed quieter sirens on police cars. You can’t seem to hear them until they’re extremely close, but it varies.
@TSEmergency agreed....definitely quieter ones on some area cars. Traffic units tend to be louder, but I've noticed some really quiet ones on small vans and some cars in my area.
Any American seeing these engines coming up behind them 'OMG that's the BIGGEST cop car I've ever seen!!'.... flashing blue lights would really mess them up!! 😆
Jeez! Can y’all take any longer to get out the station? In my fire department we roll out with an average time of just 40 seconds after the tones drop! Y’all took 60+ seconds!
Oh yeah? It seems most places suffer from it. One can only hope these small implementations make a bigger difference. If it loses its influence, then we’ll have to resort to automated barriers 😂 Thanks for watching!
The ringing bells? That’s very cool, classic. I suppose this new system wouldn’t be an unwelcome suggestion, given that so many bloody people run across whilst machines go out
@@TSEmergency We had a yard to drive across before we got to the road outside the station and people still walked across as though we were not there. I was certain that one day we would flatten some person. Fortunately we didn't. 😁😁
@gregwatkiss8973 (I think your comment may have disappeared for some reason) That’s quite incredible, I’m glad it never came to it. The yard drive should have given them a few seconds notice complimented by the two tones.. or not 😁. Retained by any chance?
Too right, I’m surprised it hasn’t ended up leading to someone’s death or serious injury. It doesn’t really make a difference having to wait a minute or two, so hopefully with this new system, people will realise that. Thanks for watching!
People with headphones and noice cancelling don't care about such warnings. And when the fireman run over one, they should be guilty, not the dumb guys with the headphones? I find this not right. Is there a visual warning too?
AS AN OFFICER IN CHARGE I USED TO SOUND all the way to an incident - ESPECIALLY IN THE EARLY HOURS OF THE MORNING - MY PHILOSOPHY WAS - IF I'M UP. SO IS EVERYONE!
Pedestrian warning? Bro just turn on your sirens. I guarantee that literally no one is paying any attention to that tinny little quiet voice speaker. Also, are you going to go?! Why are you waiting?
@@AJsWorld I see what you’re saying, but if you watch other videos featuring this station, you’ll see that the sirens don’t do anything. Crowds of people run across the front as the vehicles are emerging. The point of this announcement is to give a pre-warning, so that people can gather and wait on either side of the station out of the way, to lessen any possibility they risk getting hurt crossing the front of the station. Since this area is extremely busy and is quite tourist-heavy, the siren activation whilst they drive out can be quite sudden given all the possible distractions. People typically wouldn’t know the moment the vehicles would drive out, so they would take the chance to cross, only to be given the bullhorn, and the opportunity to realise they almost earned themselves a trip to the hospital. I hope this helps to understand the concept a bit more. Thank you for watching
If i am Bolivian and have no idea of country or language, i woudo not inderstand a word. The only thing i woudo get is a loud martins horn. Or some flashing light on pacemmt for deaf peopel.
Ah okay, the bays do have red warning lights too on the exterior when the doors are opened. And hopefully seeing other people stop to wait will encourage others to do the same. It’s certainly getting better. Thanks for watching!
Those engines don't seem in much of a hurry to leave. Just turn the bloody sirens on. If people don't get out of the way, then a spoken announcement isn't going to help. Who TF needs to be "asked" to GOOTW when a fire engine is on a blue light call ?
Clearly the sirens haven’t proven enough of a warning. It really calls for an announcement that tells people ‘Emergency Vehicle Exiting’, and that’s how you know it’s bad. People need everything spelt out for them
That's true, so many dicks in London thinking fuck the fire engines coming out, I'm not gonna stop 😮 In my area,Herts,big stations have the 'traffic lights "to stop traffic but some idiots don't stop , I've seen a collision, when a bus didn't stop ,bus and fire truck both badly damaged, female bus driver prosecution & sacked!!😮
So sorry your house is more burnt than we wished but we had to wait a few minutes for the other pump to get his act together so we could leave in a certain order.
This is useless. They pull out so god damb slow anyway. Well over 30 seconds before a siren sounds. 30 seconds when someone is dying when average response time is over 7 minutes is too long. They need 10 seconds max and need to be on scene within 4 minutes.
I'm surprised Sadact khan doesn't expect them to give way to the pedestrians walking past.before coming out .just like some of his traffic management schemes in London stupid Or do Londoners not no what a siren and flashing blue light are or what to do what a joke and waste or Money
oh dear going out to do their cleaning duties. then off to a fate somewhere, this is the only emergency service that can't or won't work with the other services,
They need to turn up to a shout in a certain vehicle formation with the TL in the middle, or the TL first as it needs to find a suitable space to park, to then operate. Unfortunately they can’t just leave as and when they please. I understand why it might look like that though, thanks for watching!
Aerial Appliances only require two people since the deployment and operation of the ladder is the only role of the crew on that appliance. In the US, they crew more as they also specialise in rescues during fires and whatnot, they also go into the building a lot more, whereas over here they operate externally. Thanks for watching!
