I know some people view this as a slow response, if you listen at the beginning of the video to the dispatch tones, no station 1 units are on the response, it’s not until around 1:24 that you hear a firefighter use the station PA to let everyone know the call is down the street from the station (may have been the initial location reported being incorrect). You can also hear the dispatch tones at the end of the video (right after truck 1 leaves) finally say ‘engine 1, 201, truck 1’ so in reality these firefighters were responding before the tones ever came in.

I love the sound if the engines roaring when they pull out.

Responses this speed are why cops make fun of firemen. Not to mention screaming sirens from the moment they hit the door although it's the middle of the night and no traffic.....

Love those flags on the backs

Bet they were just headed to the local donut shop!

WOW, from 2012 !!! Hope they get their response time better. I saw lots of comments about that. I was on for a while and even our volunteer Dept. got out in less then 30 seconds

that was a slow reposing time

Love the engine sound on Engine 1.

I love how they have the flag on the back of their trucks. Also the trucks are amazing.

We'll get there when we get there...

Even the garage doors are slow! haha

Oh yess they do! I did a ride along last Friday in three different Pierce. One of them a brand new model. such a great truck! (Henderson city, Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, and Clark County) has them. Not sure about Boulder City...I know Pahrump has different ones.

At Las Vegas Fire and Rescue Station 1 there are 2 Engine Companies (Engine 1 and Engine 201, Truck 1, Battalion Chief, and Three Rescue Units (Rescue 1, Rescue 201, and Rescue 301) Station 1 covers the downtown and Freemont Street area of the city. Next to Station 10 they are the busiest and largest station in the City. This is as close as it gets to a full station response. Engine 1 is the Snozle.

What does snozle have to do with anything ?

In the beginning of incident, you see the BC pull out and wait. My opinion is he/she was reading the address and also wondered why Station 1 was not on tge original dispatch. In some departments Medic and BC tones are different, so that you don't awake the entire station if they are not responding.

They deserve alot of credit let's stop and honor and appreciate the paramedics and firemen and police who proudly serve us your service and time and efforts are deeply appreciated thanks don't work to hard appreciate you guys thanks you guys rock great job great team work and good catches as usual still going strong great looking tower very impressed stay safe and warm out there !! Joe ❤❤😂😅

at my volunteer house we are out the door in less then 45 seconds for most ems calls and anything fire related (especially fires) we are gone less then 25 to 30, we all sprint to the truck when we got 3 we roll no waiting

Do they know that a building is on fire? They're slow as...well, imagine!

You partly correct by writing full turn out. For this station this is a regular turn out for a fire call. The Rescue (Ambulances) do not always go on fire calls. especially since this station now has 3 Rescue Co.'s. I do not know how many and what types of apparatus respond to a first alarm fire call in the Las Vegas Valley. I live in Minnesota.

I believe it's 2 engines, a truck, a rescue, and a battalion chief per alarm

I've never seen such a slow response to an emergency b4... talk about laid back

So 2:07 wasted f-King around before one truck rolls while a structure burns. Time is everything.

I could see a slower than usual response for an alarm activation, but 2 minutes to get out the door seems excessive for a house fire...

That gap between the building and third door from the left bothers me. I dont know why... it just does

Well, the clark county FD is huge from the main "Strip" las vegas area to the far side of the border with cali, and the Mountain at Mt Charleston. In Vegas area there are the CCFD, The Las vegas Fire D, The Henderson Fire D, The Boulder City fire, and the North Las Vegas Fire D. You should check their web they have all the stations and stats...:) thanks and questions are always welcome sorry for taking long just been hectic.

No kidding! I'd be a helluva lot quicker if I knew a structure fire was waiting for me.

They sound and look smooth.

Chicago fire department, 4 trucks and ambulance, chief ,out in 1:30

I will update that this like the title says is a structure fire turnout. The only rigs that didn't respond we're 2 rescues one on the video side next to BC and the other one opposite the tower bay. The subsequent video shows 2 additional fire engines responding that we're out already. If you guys have detail true information share it and I'll post it.

Those have got to be the slowest garage door opening I’ve ever seen. I did read the captions about not being dispatched at the first part of the picture but check the time between the battalion chief leaving and the first engine.

Very nice rigs. Might want to think about some faster opening bay doors...

pretty much all las vegas fire and clark county fire, and henderson fire and maybe north las vegas fire have all Pierce quantum rigs. pretty cool i love them:)

Could those garage doors open any slower?

thanks and yes got to loveee those Pierce's Q

Agree with everyone on the slow response, however a couple of things to keep in mind. These are probably not the only or closest engines responding to this call and this is probably the 20th or 30th call this station has had for the shift. i have been to this station and it is sick how many calls they get. The fact this many apparatus were in the station at the same time is amazing. But I still agree... pretty slow time out.

The call was a building fire with BC3 BC4 BC1 E1 T1 E201 And the lighting shut off was part of their Alerting system.. if yall heard the tones drop again the lights came on for another call

Sounds like they are using Locution for computer aided dispatch. We have it here in my home town too. I like hearing the voice come in over the scanner.

How does this Fire Department differ from the Clark County Fire dept? Forgive my lack of knowledge, here in Hawaii, each island (almost), has a completely separate FD.

Damn, they sure do like the Pierce Quantum chassis

great catch, LVFR has got nice trucks!

thanks! which ones you guys have?

Hmmm... Those Piece rigs look amazing. I live in the near by valley (Pahrump). I still love going to Vegas to see these rigs. However, we got some nice rigs out here in Pahrump. :)

yeah i know,, i get a ton of comments about it...but in a not the video during the day u see that they don't take long at all and is another fire call. Yes all of the city of las vegas, north las vegas, henderson, and county use Pierce Q exclusively... The rescues are either international or frieghtliner chassis. I love it! thanks for watching!

Cool catch! :D

We do the same thing (I don't, I go to the firehouse) and my previous statement stands...Think about it, you drive directly to the fire (assuming you guys know where to go) you still have to get into turnouts, go to the firetruck that you HOPE beat you to the fire...what if they didn't? You can only do a 360 and prepare a report for the IC, and wait for your SCBA and tools on the truck. So truck is there now you have to get into SCBA and mask, grab tools pull hose...You can't say that your

They have a really nice firehouse and good equipment. They do need faster garage door openers though....

I like that tower truck

why so slow the fire department where I live has to be out of the door in one minute per their S.O.P.s or they get in trouble

I don't know... I been at that house a couple of times and the lights will stay on... maybe at certain time they go on a timer...? good question. But it made a good effect, Ill try to go back there at night again. thanks!

yes I suppose haha it's quite a big house. One of the few that still has the fire poles.

have to admit though the automatic steps are pretty badass

Thanks for the reply. I like the tower and the snorkel/snozzle. Interesting that the FD decided on a piece like that. You figure they'd just throw a regular ladder or another tower on it. I assume that apparatus is an Engine? Does it count as a "quint" if it has a snozzle instead of a stick? haha

@John_Montefalco

2 жыл бұрын

A quint is a pumper with a ladder , a snozzle is a engine with a hose boom stick , a snorkel is a bucket truck with no ladder

It is a massive 2 story station. BC was gone in 40 seconds after the tones went off. E1 was out at 2:10 seconds. This is after the guys ran out of the dorms, slid down the poles and turned out. Tell me again how they are slow????

will do, check out my other videos from the some of the other departments. thanks

lol I can see that happening! well the Bc was there too, he was the first to leave. Then he waited for the engines and tower on the side.

My department is all volunteer also...and it takes us longer than that to stop what we're doing and GET TO the firehouse...so how do you guys do it?

Great vid! Please show more!!

there sure takin there jolly ole time

Unless you work where i do. We have walk away SCBA's in out seats. Were usually out the station after initial dispatch in 50 seconds or less. Most of the time we usually save time by putting our jackets on while en-route.

American flags on the back of the trucks........ nice touch, that sort of thing dont happen in England, shame really. Keep up the good work guys.

they actually called an engine. It has that squirt extension. called "tele-squirt"

about 18 fire stations. of the city of las vegas fire and rescue, then county has way more and north las vegas and henderson, and boulder city...

lol i know! check the other fire response video from inside the bay:) thanks

not the Q, the one near/on top of the fire station (example; here in Urbana, IL there is a tornado siren next to the fire station)

we send an engine, tower and heavy rescue to fires in our 1st due district, for a vol. company we have about a 2:30 turnout from when the 1st alert comes through to when the house siren winds down, at that time the frontline engine is already out the door and the tower following it

I mean what is that unit behind the 4th garage from where the camera is; if that unit didn't respond which it seems it didn't, then that means it's not a full turnout

@RayRay2290TX actually they have many calls and they keep 3 rescue ambulances at that time. Keep in mind that is the central station for that department

I used to live in Las Vegas. Back in the '70s '80s and '90s the engines were white.

In what way was that slow? Do you want them to work, eat and sleep inside their trucks? In our vol. dept. in Belgium, it even takes up to 6 minutes before the first FFs arrive at the house. Then they have to put on their gear and wait till the engine is staffed as it should be. It can take up to 8 to 10 minutes before the first engine leaves the house. So I can't see any problem with three minutes.

Brilliant video ;). Nice big turnout.

Fire truck are cool

Some time today!!!!!!

Unless someone is trapped, they are only responding to contain the fire. A policy change that is several years old now, unless that has changed again. About 75% of their calls are for trapped cats and drunken tourists.

@bafiredept

4 жыл бұрын

yeah tahts true aa lotttt of drunken tourists, we try having additional units for ems and recovery rooms inside the casinos, because they don't like it when you walk in the casino in gear.

As an ex fire fighter, for all those who are complaining about the response time, let me just point out that its obviously a night shift, and id say late due to the lack of traffic on the road, and so these men were probably trying to catch up on some sleep at the time of the call!!! But hey, you think you can do better? Do the training and sign up!! But its not a job for every one!!

That's a lot of trucks

Hi, not green. As far as I know it been red with a gold stripe and golden dice for quite a while. Though I be seen old pics of some white rigs... Thanks for watching!

why did the lights go from being on to going off and back to on again?

those doors irritated me more than anything! god i think my house garage door moves faster than that xD XD

yeah... i did corrected in a comment box previous... it was my bad, the rescues stayed at the station for this one.

Your right, so don't assume response procedures and time frames are universal.

Those American flags!!!!!! Just beautiful

You know after your message i saw Ladder 48 of LVFR has a tiller. I saw them last friday around their depo. But a BC told me that they will be gone soon. I like them better..

Awesome videos.Gorgeous rigs.I'm jealous of the rigs,lol

I meant from time of call. Trucks should be out in under 2 minutes from first 'bells'. Most of the stations I have visited have the same requirement.
