[@ScubaSteve07194]

In most places a Truck and Ladder Company are the same thing. They do searches and ventilation. Engines put water on the fire, and run EMS. Squad or Rescue rigs are special units designed to deal with any incident that can happen. At a fire they are used as manpower rigs, they do anything from pulling hoselines to ventilation to searches.

[@mightymystery9204]

I was surprised to see two command buggies, until I saw one of them going a different direction. When the boom truck left, I was further surprised to hear an electronic warble siren, which strangely, for awhile, became the norm, about when lime yellow was introduced (but didn't carch on). The biggest surprise was hearing that Federal Q scream from the med wagon. I still believe the mechanical scream is easier to hear, sounds farther, and has the benefit of vibrating soundproof car windows. Sorry for the editorial. Excellent, orderly turnout!

[@grammpaa]

[@Dalesr4ever]

The Difference between an engine and ladder company is the engine company puts water on the fire and the engine company does a primary search for victims while the ladder company on the other hand, does all the venting and conduct a search for victims as well. Usually the ladder company in this case runs into the burning building while everyone else is running out but here's a twist. The ladder company usually has no water between them and the fire.

That's alright I understand. I thought you may actually know about Chicago, but that's ok. It differs everywhere. Depends on the size and what type of dept you work for. In my former department Engines would only perform searches if there was a known entrapment. Otherwise Truck companies would take care of it. Good luck on your training and school work.

Three things I noticed that others mentioned: 1) Engine 42 leaving so fast. There was a firefighter out stopping traffic at the station. 2) The engines not stopping at the intersection with the red light. Notice that the two fire cars were in the intersection running blockade at the intersection for the first units out. 3) The two fire cars going in different directions. Definitely possible that they were going to approach the fire-scene from different sides to expedite the sizing up.

[@KHall1309]

When multiple pieces are coming up on an intesection they will use different sirens to signal to traffic that there is more than one fire truck approaching the intersection so cars stop and wait until all the fire trucks are through. When through the intersection they will all typically switch back to same siren on each truck.

[@rhoonah5849]

@@KHall1309 100% correct.
