A look inside Engine 61's house when they still used its E-One/Ford pumper and received calls from the Joker's Stand and Squawkbox!

My Dad was killed in 12-17-53. I was 7, my bro. 11. He became a firefighter too. Retired in '99. Deceased '07 (Brain tumor/cancer). I still look for them in pictures/stories. My heart is broken & doesn't heal-I love all firefighter people. GOD BLESS YOU ALL -- Chief Geo. Malik (sister)

Altho we don't have pull boxes in town anymore, our ticker tape system still works punching out 4 dots, we recently restored and put it in a nice case so it will work for another 100yrs

It`s amazing how small the cabs of the older trucks are. To the cabs of the trucks today.

The Ford C 8000 was a cheap option compared to the custom cabs of today. They were also cheap as my old department had on of those cabs back in the early 80 s

glen power-williams Love their look, but the Cat 3208 diesel is one of the worst-performing engines made. I think a total of 250hp. I think the turbocharged version barely made 300.

When my father was a Relief Engineer in the 1st District in the late 90s, He was detailed to Engine 103 and they had a 1982 Ford/E-One 1250/500 Pumper just like this rig shown in the video. When my father was a Candidate Firefighter on Truck 5 in 1987, Engine 23 had a 1982 Ford/E-One 1250/500 Pumper and a 1972 Mack CF/Pirsch 100' Rear-Mount Aerial Ladder Truck. A year after my father joined the Fire Department, Truck 5 would get a brand new 1988 E-One Hurricane 95' Rear-Mount Aerial Platform Ladder Truck and the Company was now known as Tower Ladder 5.

That's a C- model Ford, one of the most popular mid size truck chassis for that period. Wondering what date this was filmed.

I would say in most houses. Out of all the times I’ve went out to different houses I very rarely get a fast turnout time. You’ll only see that on fire runs which is definitely needed but wish EMS calls were taken more seriously like fires (maybe not crazy fast).
