FAQs-
Q: "Where is this?"
A: Our fire house is located in the town of Willow Street, just south of Lancaster City, Lancaster County Pennsylvania.
Q: "What is the spinning thing?"
A: That is called the "Roto-Ray," it is a spinning light designed to catch drivers attention.
Q: "Why is the call so far away?" or "Why does it take so long to get there?"
A: Many of our responses, or at least many of the ones that are uploaded are responding to assist other departments. Usually another firehouse can be seen or is passed by who is already on the call. We can reach the far end of our first due in West Lampeter Twp within 5 minutes, and in Providence Twp about 7.
Q: "What camera are you using?"
A: For dash cams I use a GoPro Hero 7, helmet cam videos I use a FireCam 1080

Looks like someone needs to get these kids on Beyond Scared Straight program although it hasn't been on the air since like 2015. Ridiculous this generation not listening to authority. 🤬🤬

[@robbiestalter3426]

What is a TAC type vehicle in your dept?

[@jasoncrawford532]

In this case it’s people transport, brush truck, and can fight structure fires if needed I believe

[@Robert-cd2ht]

Why those mischievous juviniles and their park shenanigans! I bet Mother Nature will take a stick to their behinds if they try that again! TAC 50 looks awesome, what a ride.

[@thatkid2185]

You guys should consider getting a rumbler siren. We just got one on for our ambulance and it seems like people pay way more attention to it.

[@Rooster_milk]
