Most definitely. I’d say stations like Euston would benefit, and perhaps Islington. Any of the central stations with a large local population really. Thanks for watching!
Aww spoilsports...half the fun was scaring pedestrians turning out from Euston, Manchester Square, Soho and other places.... I even used to enjoy it before joining the Brigade on the LAS.....😅😅😅
@@LondonBuses98 It was a good day in the end. Soho isn’t what I would particularly want to post as everyone and their mother end up catching their machines, but unfortunately I have nothing else 😂 I’ve not been very lucky, but next weekend, perhaps a station or two on the outskirts will be due a little visit. Let’s hope things turn around, thanks for watching mate!
@felixfreitag2260Hello, so in this case the callsigns stated were ‘A212, A242’ due to an error in the system. Usually just the machines from that station only would be announced. I hope this answers your question, thanks for watching!
@@felixfreitag2260That’s amazing, I appreciate your kind words. Sorry I haven’t been uploading as much recently, but that should change soon now that I can get back out. Have a great week!
@KentEmergencyVehicles Thank you very much, I was surprised by its ability to stop the crowd on either side. Only good things are to come of it. Thanks for watching mate
@@lastofthefallensouls1943 I would assume the order is still followed, but I’ve yet to confirm it. The order allows the TL time to find a suitable spot to deploy the aerial, so it would definitely be ideal. Thanks for watching!
Good spot, it must be otherwise it would have been announced. I think it’s activated manually because the bay doors are also opened for other reasons, so you wouldn’t want passers by waiting for the machine to leave when instead a firefighter has popped out for whatever reason. Thanks for your question!
@@diggernator So cool to see people from across the pond commenting, thank you very much. I’m not surprised you have the same problem though haha, people are too busy glued to their phones, or too distracted by city lights that they don’t see the flashing ones attached to massive trucks! 😁
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.
@@billyweir714 Certainly, too many near misses over the years. People are quite unaware, despite the fact a bright red machine with blue lights and noise is emerging. I’ll never understand 😂 Thanks for watching Bill
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!! 😆
@@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!
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!
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!!😮
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!
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?
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!
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!
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!
They have something similar in the Bronx. The voice says “Hey you! Get ‘da fuck outta’ ‘da way! Fuggitaboutit!”
Every single time, thanks for watching 😂
the American Fire Dept RUMBLER would make me move for sure.
"AYYY I'M GETTING TO AN EMERGENCY OVA' HERE!"
@@Roethorn_pb We absolutely need rumbler sirens. The only vehicles in London with them currently are a few unmarked COLP volvos.
@TSEmergencyI’ve seen a police car use a rumbler siren here in hampshire
Awsome, about time this feature was added to Soho. Needed at other stations too

@ In the days of two tones I suspect?
Brighton and Hove fire station in East sussex has a turnout announcement as well it says "please stand back emergency vehicles exiting
@skullcrusher_0954That’s good, it’ll sure help avoid unwanted collisions. I hope the holiday crowd aren’t as numb to it
Now that's loud when you're standing right by the entrance!
@@Hastings1066TV Oh yes it is!
Engine 42 in Chicago uses the “lay on the horn as you clear the threshold” method. Works just fine, but doesn’t sound so polite.
@@michaelmcmeel914 Sometimes a not so polite measure is called for, thanks for watching!

Is that new that the call sign is said twice followed by the bells? Always thought it would be 3 times before the bells.

Finally - a tannoy that people respond to! Nice catch!
Thanks!
Any idea what the bike is that is behind the pump at 1:52?
I think that might be an LAS bike, a paramedic on one did enter the station beforehand
What a brilliant experience. Well done. xx
Thank you!!
Would've loved it if they brought back the two tone horns.
Wouldn’t we all, they’re sorely missed. Everyone would immediately know what was coming, and also to move out of the way.. Thanks for watching!
@@TSEmergency they were the symbol of the UK fire brigades
Interesting tones
Do they still have to go out in order ??
We wasn’t allowed to leave before the P1
