FDNY Tiller Ladder 20 (+ Ghostbusters Ladder 8 responding modified)

The Ghostbusters fire house normally hosting ladder 8 is currently closed for renovation so that the truck has moved temporarily to the quarters of ladder 20 and division 1. Both trucks were dispatched to a call in L20's first due with ladder 8 responding modified (=no lights no sirens). Ladder 8 was parked outside the building because they were making a drill when the call came in. It is rare to have 2 ladder trucks responding out of one fire house in NYC.

Da die Ghostbusters Wache, die normalerweise Leiter 8 beherbergt, derzeit wegen Renovierungsarbeiten geschlossen ist, steht das Fahrzeug momentan an der Wache von L20 und Division 1. L20 und L8 wurden beide gemeinsam zu einem Einsatz gerufen, wobei L8 gemäss der "FDNY modified response policy" ohne Signal anfährt. Es ist selten in NYC 2 Drehleitern beim Ausrücken aus ein und derselben Wache zu sehen.

Holy! Ladder 20 came out like a jack-in-the-box! All that truck from that tiny space. As some who has driven trucks with and without trailers for decades, what FDNY does in those cramped quarters still amazes me!

FDNY is a very impressive ladder truck and certainly is needed in a city where there are many narrow alleys to get into. Although for myself and my fire department I really liked our ladder truck which was a straight ladder truck. When operated properly with the jacks correctly sst, could not be turned over and we also flowed 2000 GPM. But unlike a tiller, we couldn't negotiate allets. Again I very much enjoyed seeing FDNY Ladder 20. Thank you again for the video.

I’m also not sure any of those drives know how far back 200 feet actually is. I know that they probably use that exclusively for reversing, but if a big rig in Australia had that written on the back and you ran up the back of them you would get a fine for tailgating, and for reckless driving.

@@maxhallman1036 thank you for the quick response. E-265 house had a nice size and looks cool! Response tactics and station size & placement are very different from here in central Europe. Here you find many stations in the size range of 40+ bays, some even have 60 bays. In most cities it's mixed use for ordinary and special operations while only few cities run seperate special operations stations. I live in a small village of 10k inhabitants but the volunteer FD still has a station with 9 units housed there. Used to live in a city where the 47 bay counting fire station got too small (imagine that!)

[@thekitchen6378]

Square footage yes… this is one of the biggest. Used to be the FDNY medical office. This building you are seeming houses the following. L-20, D-1, re-breather 1, RAC bat, Rescue 1 reserve rig, CSU, Fire Marshall’s special investigations. Unit. The Captain of L-20 is in charge of the building as a whole. The rest of the units are Tenants. That is as the tradition goes.

Then the engineer had to wait for drivers and bikers who ignored the signals to stop to move past. Then he had to visually confirm there were no more oncoming drivers and bikers. It's because of oblivious people like you that it takes American fire departments longer to get going. Just stop commenting.
