Galloway Township Working Junkyard Fire Major Response & Tanker Shuttle 8/1/21

Many Companies from around Atlantic County and Ocean County response to a major Junkyard fire with Hazmat in Galloway Township, Atlantic County New Jersey. Several trucks from around the region participated in a tanker shuttle to supply water the the fire at the remote scene. I was able to capture several old and rare trucks responding to the incident Such As Atlantic City International Airport Fire Department Crash 2417 & Hazmat 241 along with South Egg Harbor Fire Company Decon 5 and New Jersey EMS Task Force Medical Ambulance Bus 12.

That ARFF truck is the best part about this!

[@Tim_Gagnon]

It's always impressive to see ARFF Trucks used in civilian fire fighting! Great video @Rainman14

[@Rainman14]

Thank you!

[@talk-is-pitt]

I live in allegheny county pa and the county airport FD is my towns 2nd alarm callout

[@angrycrusaderboi1374]

0:08 there she is! What a beautiful truck. Sorry I’m a Jr firefighter at that station and I just get happy when I see them responding

[@Rusty_Nickle]

It's always fun to see. It's very rare when you get an occurrence where you have that many departments responding with tankers. We had it happen once in our area. Feed mill caught fire. We sent our two tankers and I think there was every tanker within a 30 mi radius just trying to supply the trucks and keep them in enough water to fight the fire. We had to keep going further and further away because the water towers of the nearby towns were being depleted.

[@michaelbeiler7164]

towns local here havent gotten that big but weve had calls where tanker from 5 to 6 departments were hauling water but the nicw thing about the country here is we have enough rivers and lakes around and most trucks here have floatable and portable pumps on them water isnt isnt to much of an issue

[@Rusty_Nickle]

I guess I should have specified. I'm from North Dakota on the east side and we're pretty rural and our ability to get water from just anywhere is pretty limited. It wasn't necessarily a big fire. But it was big enough that it required a crapload of water. Of course we could use the help. But you know how it goes you don't use water from the neighboring district without inviting them to the party.

[@Mustang6971]

You know it’s bad when the ARFF truck is dispatched away from the airport

[@JeremyWray86]

It's actually pretty common. The AC airport touches/is very close to about 4 or 5 municipalities. So not uncommon at all for them to come out and help in the local area. The Air Force tanker is more rare of a sight around here in my own experience.

[@jcnme27]

That black police Charger blocking the road could've backed TF up a few feet, damn!

[@rachelblack8926]

Gotta love it how the police block the road the car should not be way out in the middle like that, but that’s how smart the cops are or not

[@PremierAutoMan86]

Talk about a major response! Cool to see some older rigs with halogen rotators and strobe lights especially since new stuff is all LED.

[@ERICSANFILIPPO]

whoa an ARFF fire truck responding to JUNKYD FIRE

[@captainfordo3978]

Wow. They needed EVERY Tanker in their possession (old, new & some probably taken out of retirement) for this. Just shows that even though their outdated, even the oldest fire engines have their usefulness in the field. Props to the boys in blue (the police) for directing traffic from harm's way & kept drivers/pedestrians at a safe distance away from the fire dept.'s staging area(s). Also, shoutout to the fire dept. that were involved for they went BALLS DEEP (pause) to put out the massive fire. A job well done to all of em for doing their jobs professionally.

[@DefaultMale_]

get this man a tripod

[@NestorLewis]

Wow you finally posted this, this was like 2 years ago,

[@Rainman14]

Yeah, I kept didn’t have the storage to transfer all the videos over for the longest time, once I got that storage I somehow forgot/ kept putting it off.

[@dennisthrockmorton9714]

​@@Rainman14 hey it's not your fault this is an amazing video I'm watching it right now

[@allietwort1146]

You think that the black police car could be moved slightly for easier access for fire apparatus.

[@Vladpryde]

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that lol.

[@whuffer5103]

Yep. Came here to say, "HOW ABOUT YOU MOVE YOUR FUTKEEN CAR?!"

[@Jacksonboyeroutdoors]

Those kenworth tankers are awesome

[@remixricky469]

Looked like one of the fire engines motor blew at 11.16 of this video sure putting out lot of smoke

[@Doc_Rainbow]

32:53 nice rig :D

[@chrisk3488]

Somebody get the un-marked Police car out of the way and replaced with a visible unit.

[@millennial9252]

Awesome catch!

[@millennial9252]

The Air Force catch and that beautiful old Port Harbor were great!

[@Rainman14]

Thank you!

[@skunklover5725]

That Yellow Fire Truck at 9:47 is sweet, it has those old-school rotary fire light's on it.

[@juke925]

Love this video.

[@lylekinnaman694]

Very nice video thank you

[@robertchristensen2633]

Do u have any video of the Cramer junkyard fire in new gretna ?if so please release them .I was first engine in on that fire

[@danfranzen3492]

Were I live we have federal state county tribal city fire department and Emergency Services. You know it’s big when you have ERT. Responding

[@JoexxPACMANxx]

dam them tankers are geting there miles in

[@arthurzeller5754]

Ya think the patrol car at the intersection would move

[@MaxsFireVideography]

Great video and Nice rigs

[@Rainman14]

Thank you!

[@MaxsFireVideography]

@@Rainman14 your welcome

[@averagejeep]

19:55 is what u all have been waiting for

[@jcp411]

What is it and what does it do?

[@danfranzen3492]

It’s a full call out for emergency services. But in Arizona is 10:55

[@moepizl]

O snap. Ur in SJ. So used to watchn ur content in PA

[@Rainman14]

I’ve been getting videos from all around recently. The area only keeps expanding too.

[@nathanharrellyoutube]

Why did that tender have a cali style steady burn

[@SethMaxx1994]

Awesome video

[@Rainman14]

Thanks!

[@robertbrady9597]

awesome of all the rigs

[@firefighterfan2010]

That an big smoke!🔥

[@davidwoodley8261]

How far have some of the units traveled to this incident, I’m from the uk and clueless to how far units travel in the states to these incidents

[@JeremyWray86]

15-20 miles maybe. There's a major highway very near this so those coming the farthest didn't have a long ride.

[@stevenpivornik9982]

16:00 Is this truck a refurb job? If so, I am really impressed. Looks sharp as hell.

[@sirensofnewjerseyissimplyt429]

nice video! did you by any chance hear any station sirens? "fire house siren"

[@jasoncrawford532]

So where the junkyard was located it was on the outskirts of the Twp near Port. But probably by the time cameras were set up and were probably already done their cycle or you couldn’t hear them

[@central_ohio_firebuff]

What camera did you use???

[@matthewbond8874]

Block the damn street off and keep these men and women responding safe. This isn’t rocket science 😮

[@RandomTrinidadian]

0:37, Is that an Airport unit?

[@noahater5785]

Yep, it looks like it.

[@trainboy1979]

Says "Airport" on the side :)

[@shaneharrisnj3484]

Yes it is, Atlantic City, NJ to be exact.

[@richardstrickland8136]

In Rhode Island, a tanker shuttle is called a tanker task force

[@jamesvanscoy7717]

Great vedio and neat trucks to

How's the fire?

[@mikerotch4597]

2417 rollin coal

[@police_explorer1189]

How long ago was this?

[@Rainman14]

This was from late summer of 2021

[@kobdigital9634]

Im a swiftwater-rescue swimmer and emt in germany and two things always wonder me, when I see american emergencies: 1. Why do you use that many lights? Beside the cool look. our parliament shortly passed a law, that forbids more than two extra lights (other than lightbars) in one direction for future vehicles. The reason is "oversignaling". I know, that law amakes no sense. But its always the ones in charge, which never were on the streets. 2. Apparently it is possible in the usa to listen to the radio frequencies. In Germany we have to use digital radios, that are secured and need a special sim card from the authorities.

[@JeremyWray86]

If you ever drove here and saw how oblivious most people are you'd understand. I've seen videos from Europe of there being an accident and motorists take to both shoulders so emergency vehicles have plenty of room to go down the center and reach the scene. Here people get in the way and flip them off because the situation is inconveniencing them. And yes radio scanners are legal. My dad used to be a firefighter then a dispatch supervisor and growing up he had a scanner on in the house. Drove my mom nuts haha.

[@AirWasTaken]

Honestly, amazing. One thing I’m slightly questioning is that why there was an airport fire truck.

[@legohead6]

Its ability to put a ton of water or foam on the fire using its cannon. Looks like they called in basically every available resource for this fire.

[@jar407]

airports not very far from there

[@_jv_1094]

If the airport isn’t far away from the fire the smoke could become a possible risk for flights

[@JeremyWray86]

It's actually pretty common. The AC airport touches/is very close to about 4 or 5 municipalities. So not uncommon at all for them to come out and help in the local area.

[@Rusty_Nickle]

They had enough cop sitting around If they were smart they would have shut the roads down way back to prevent the looksy Lou traffic

[@littlesquirtthefireengine5478]

I wonder if Bargaintown is next to Priceyville

[@karsoncampbelllogginginc]

What exactly happened?

[@19irving]

Great parade of fire trucks, but where's the fire?

[@worldrenowned]

…

[@19irving]

@@worldrenowned huh?

[@Cutekittens4471]

19:12 why is this tanker truck taking new lights?

[@ihateidiots]

….

[@jefferykeeper9034]

By the time all the fire units get there the fire will be out.

[@_jv_1094]

Those units keep going back and fourth from the fire with the sole purpose of delivering more water to the engines which are fighting the fire

[@jamesvanscoy7717]

So many state boys there they really need that much cops at a junk yard fire

[@chrisplummer923]

An airport truck responding off the airport grounds? That's wouldn't happen around here

[@THEFINALHAZARD]

Unless shit really hit the fan. Which it seems it did here between that, EMA, Hazmat, NJ State EMS task force. And a frigging USAF unit

[@jasoncrawford532]

So for this we requested them for their foam tender to help cool/knock down the fire

[@jasoncrawford9774]

To elaborate as well, the AC Airport touches 5 municipalities so they often respond off base as mutual aid. An example, the one municipality has them on their working fire dispatch

[@timcampbell3857]

Where is the fire

[@nathanamey2067]

The ambulance had a mini loud thingy

[@worldrenowned]

...

[@Cutekittens4471]

7:34 this fire engine is taking new lights!

[@THEFINALHAZARD]

What in the hell was involved to warrant the airport Hazmat, ARFF truck, state ems, EMA, foam supplies, all the other hazmat and decon stuff, and a tanker(clearly origonally frol west coast) feom the Air Force??

[@jasoncrawford532]

The airport was called for their foam tender and the hazmat vehicle comes with the tender. Everything else was brought into help with the local agencies with rehab since there was crews from 3 different counties there. The air force tanker was there because of the Tanker Taskforce activation

[@THEFINALHAZARD]

@@jasoncrawford532 gotchas! I alexia the info there. Makes sense to me

[@razvandobos9759]

I would love to see them have radiology trucks too, like a x-ray and fluoroscopy truck, a nuclear medicine truck, a ultrasound van, and a MRI truck.

[@JS-zb1vv]

Seems like an overuse of all of this equipment. Just need heavy equipment to cut a line though the junk let it burn itself out . The water run off is worse than the air quality. Yea this is overkill and draining other departments that might need a life safety response. It’s obviously not a life threatening fire .

[@humblemann4202]

All this for a junkyard fire lol

[@jasoncrawford532]

Because there’s no hydrants in the area and crews couldn’t get that close until the foam truck arrived because of how it was with everything in the junkyard involved

[@definitelynotcainan3353]

Bloody hell.. who WASN'T there? Massive overkill for a junkyard fire. What a waste of money and resources.

[@timcampbell3857]

What a waste of time
