Collaboration Makes it Work

Love the houses that strive to maintain their history. It's important to keep it alive for future generations.

It is important to retain history for any new house

43:32 Holy crap! Willow Grove's old tiller lives on! That beauty should be featured in a "Station Rigs" episode. Fascinating story behind it. If memory serves, Arlington County (VA) originally purchased just the back half--no tractor--in the mid-'90s and converted an International conventional cab (think a contemporary WorkStar/HV607) tractor to pull it, but mostly used it only as a spare/reserve rig. I don't know whether it was Arlington or Willow Grove that upgraded to the Simon-Duplex D9100 tractor, but the trailer was one of the last that the company built under their name, shortly before they sold LTI to Aerial Innovations. Ah, the good old (or odd, which those swing-out outriggers definitely were ) days.

Dude you are so full of history. We love it. Thank you as always for your input on the series.

@@HeroesNextDoor Better to be full of history that full of . . . well, you know. Not saying I don't indulge moments of the latter--nobody lasts long in this line of work if they aren't equally well versed in both fact and plausible exaggeration--but generally not with things having to do with firefighting. Stay safe, brother, and keep up the good work!

Nice firehouse. Was loving their patch also. One of the firehouses you did a station cribs episode on, i ended up getting a shirt from. It was overlook fire company

That’s cool. Thanks for your support

Thanks for coming out and visiting. Great video tour! -Rick Rotondo

I visited the Chicago Fire Museum and they have an active "joker stand" which is what their bell system came into the station. While discussing it I showed one of the older guys my Active 911 app. What a difference, from a bells for an intersection in the station to an app on my phone that not only tells me the exact address plus call notes plus turn by turn directions!

[@HeroesNextDoor]

We have not seen a joker stand. I would like to know more

THANK YOU, BROTHER MIKE ! 🇺🇲

Maybe in a couple of years, a Station Rigs on the new Tiller. It’s great to see the great working relationship between Fire and EMS. Unfortunately, I’ve seen too many bad relationships, even in departments the run the EMS. Great video and great house.

[@HeroesNextDoor]

Yeah we will want to see that rig for sure

[@alexanderleach3365]

I love these firehouse tours. WOuld like to see some videos of firehouses of California especially in Encinitas and San Diego.

[@HeroesNextDoor]

We are trying to get there. We need a sponsorship to make that trip. If you know of a station or two who are willing to house us while we film that would go a LONG way for us to schedule the trip

Are they planning to place the training TDA in service or is that only there to train

[@HeroesNextDoor]

This one in the station is a loaner and training only. They have a new one in order

that tiller ladder truck is that going be as backup truck help out as need?

[@MWO101]

@ mike for the love of god do not let them remove their engine keep it with the new quint as it will prove to be a great asset to have o nhand for any structural event, espectially since a TDA quint only carries less than 500 gallons of water you will need the engine as a second pump for when working incidents and waiting for additional units

[@chillies4156]

Nice video

[@EricWhiteTheGamer]

It would be cool if you could get into a military fire, police, and or medical area and do a station and fleet video of them... that would most likely never happen though.
