Thankyou lads for watching over us

[@lukew441]

well your right i cant but when i havent experienced it but its a job what my grandad had done and ever since i can remeber i have always wanted to be a fire fighter. bloody good men you are :)

[@grantusmaximus6969]

brill vid mate my hydrenaline was racing watching that ha...the yippee bit was funny, keep up the great work and stay safe

[@andycoach1965]

I didn't film it, I was driving the fire engine that in front and one of the lads in the truck behind me had a camera with him so he filmed it!

[@tacticalninja7815]

I once followed a fire engine from blackley fire station to see where it was going, after about a minute the thing was gone lol it was way too fast for me to keep up with! These trucks are rapid

[@lukew441]

EXCELLENT i cannot wait to be driving one of those

[@MRDiNoSaUrHD]

I've spoken to a Watch Manager at Mosside fire station, he said get all the education, and some job experience done before you sign up, just incase things take a turn for the worst!

[@gudfella1034]

great piece of driving mate.

[@LiamGardner]

When he asks "Who's driving that?" Does he reply... Mark Forbesy???? And great to see a local vid, recognise all of STretford and Urmston there. Keep up the great work!

[@davidthornton9214]

Two pumps in convo. A very rare sight these days. Sad.

[@andycoach1965]

Cheers buddy... i was driving the truck that is in front! ;0)

[@mlps93]

Thats sounds like an old version of the premier hazard.

[@andycoach1965]

don't comment on the gruesome stuff until you've experienced it buddy because it is never how you imagine it will be... and the second pump will always catch the first because the first gets held up as it clears the traffic! :0)

[@andycoach1965]

where at?

[@lukew441]

manchester college how did u get to film this?

[@davewalsh5127]

i these pumps were my favourite plenty of space in the back bit slow to start tho

[@hz6761]

Still used on some old Dennis HPs in Hong Kong

[@guitarboy96]

2:00 lol no matter how serious the situation is, u always try to have a laugh

[@andycoach1965]

the bullhorn has been removed now... apparently it was too aggressive! LOL

[@DC3Refom]

That's such a shame

[@andy-tu2rx]

Needs to be reinstated with all these dopes on the road.

[@Smithyards]

@andycoach1965 they took the bullhorn away? what is wrong with the fire service these days,

[@lukew441]

i honestly dont mind all the grusome stuff and the other appliance caught up to you there miless ahead great driving :D also outside the local youth club in chadderton the other week there was a crew outside there let me have a go of the i think its th dry riser ( black) and B.A n new galet hemetls :D

[@Biffo1262]

It's always easier following another appliance. It makes it look as though the leading appliance could go faster but that simply isn't the case. The leading appliance is clearing the traffic for you and it is he who gets hindered by slower moving obstacles not the following driver.

[@hyper2high]

I once saw a fire truck in Stretford with a damn fine female driver

[@lukew441]

Sweet so u go the new volvos now at stretford havent you? aww you dont understand how lucky you are :D

[@andycoach1965]

Cheers buddy, the bull horns were banned because they were seen as too agressive! LOL

[@lukew441]

Lol, u not on duty tonight then ? and have u been a driver for long? i really want to know how hard the drivers course is beacuse i really want to be a driver once i join the service

[@coastliner7009]

Love the siren

[@everettsemergencyvids4786]

Coastliner700 Premier Hazard 7004 with Airhorn 0:40 and Manual Siren Override 1:46

[@andycoach1965]

@LiamGardner Noit's not forbesy it's me! LOL Cheers fella :0)

[@steuk6510]

I wonder what it's like to drive a fire engine tho

[@firejam78]

It's one of the most satisfying but scary things in the world all at the same time if you know what I mean

[@policeblue999]

Very entertaining video. Nice one ;)

[@MRDiNoSaUrHD]

Really want to join the fire service, going to go college, get a job first for experience, then I'm signing up, would you agree its a job you love :)?

[@johnmcquay82]

I'm amazed at how quick these get up to speed; I haven't got a clue how much they weigh but even so...

[@jamienorman2622]

Between 7-15tons normally.

[@EnidAgnusDei]

Volvo FL6-14, so max total weight is 14 tonne but they weigh around 12.5 fully laden.

[@everettsemergencyvids4786]

johnmcquay82 these machines did pick up quickly, saw them flying all over the place and boy, do they fly.

[@Bluezn2z]

[@Sarge084]

Can we go back to two-tone air horns please!

[@johnmaclaurin3611]

Gone are the days fire engines had "nee naw nee naw" sirens....

[@ThatBritishGuy26]

They all sound the same now, when I was growing up you could tell the difference between police, ambulance and fire.

[@stealth1692]

the two tones some still have them

[@FreestyleCrazy12345]

They still have two tones or atleast in Bucks they do. My dad is a crew Commander and try still use them and also you can still tell the difference between Police, Fire and Ambulance

[@aledballinger2717]

In my home town it goes my dad is a commander and the siren goes dy dy dy dy dy ane a horn

[@YelpBullhorn]

[@andycoach1965]

No, I'm in community fire safety at the moment... and first you need to become a qualified firefighter... on average it takes 5 to 7 years before you get to drive!

[@johndoe-it1mo]
