Nice fire sta love all the other stas history

[@chuckman231]

Great video! Love companies that keep their history alive! Thank you for showcasing these great departments.

[@HeroesNextDoor]

We will keep doing our best. Pass the word and help us grow so we can travel more to anyone who invites us 😉

[@Dee0426]

I love this! Way to join forces to best serve the community and firefighters involved

a cool fire house to get a tour of, is Concordville Fire Company Station 59

[@dwest12518]

With all the times I have been back home. I honestly never knew that my hometown had it's own fire department. I always thought it was just the Volunteer fire departments that took care of business. The best thing I remember were the fire carnivals in both Espy and Lime Ridge. Great memories from my childhood.

[@bubbagow2537]

Here in Factoryville we still have our 3 Ward LaFrance's. 2 of them are owned by the asst. Chief. And the 3rd one my dad/chief owns. 1933, 1954, and 1967 ward lafrance's

[@ericlweatherhog]

Nice to see this highlight of my Hometown. Back in the Early 90's when they were all distributed companies I would service some of the two-way radios for the units and the two-tone pagers. I was also involved with the new comm center when it was being developed. I have a soft spot for the no-longer Fernville fire company as I lived right down the street. Not sure what actually caused its demise but it was a hard station to keep running it seemed. My residence required the fire services twice in the late 80's when i was growing up and the response was spot on and saved our house and business at the time. Great content!!

[@HeroesNextDoor]

Thank you for your service and thanks for watching

[@heavy7799]

It’s quickly approaching the time where a lot of volly companies think about consolidation. Low manpower and duplication of equipment in a close area no need to have so many companies in close proximity. Before anyone gets there panties in a bunch I’m talking about multiple companies within a close area.

[@johncase2974]

Awesome video - fantastic audio and since I gave you a little grief about uniform pants in one of your previous videos, I have to give you a compliment on your complete uniform including pants in this video. Very sharp, professional. Nice job with everything !

Awesome! Hi FF BORRELLO! This was another great SC Episode! The show has grown so much in such a short time. I am hooked on these now. That last piece (the 1938) is almost the exact same thing as Nashua Fire Rescue's piece. I believe Nashua's might be a 1937. But Nashua's is the old Engine 4, that piece is only used for parades nowadays. I think you're going to love NFR. I can't wait for you to arrive up here to finally see for yourself. Great pieces and a GREAT DEPARTMENT!

[@HeroesNextDoor]

Love the video 😊

[@rickyheck6780]

Interesting Station... Been past it many times in my life... I am a vollie from Juniata County and Otr Driver in my lifes work... But I always wondered how Bloomsburg was set up... I actually had one of there members in class with me last month at the PA Fire Academy...You should go to the Academy and see how it is laid out like a station and show the facility is laid out and really close to being set up for burns and put us into department like emergencies...

[@HeroesNextDoor]

We hopefully will make it out to the academy at some point, I think people would really like that

[@coover65]

Do volunteer fire departments in the US get any local or state government funding? That van was older than a couple of retired units we have in our ambulance museum. If ever you're in Australia I'd gladly give you a tour of our ambulance service stations and control centre.

[@Zachattackisrad]

Yes we do get funding from local and state government. Some old apparatus just don't replace it unless it's needed. Other places replace on a specific year basis like 10 year, 15 year and so on. Some are just kept since they function well and have some history

[@thisissparta789789]

We primarily get local funding, though we also get some state and federal funds through grants. Unlike in Australia, we don’t have statewide fire services like the NSW RFS or FRNSW. All firefighting is organized on the local level.

[@hihfty]

There are so many different ways fire departments are funded in the US its mind boggling. But there seems to be extreme inefficiencies in this particular station. Having 9 pieces of apparatus and only doing about 250 calls is insane and the maintenance budget must be astronomical. The volunteer system in certain areas of the country some times has a mind of its own. Most of these companies only exist because they're old and steeped in history. Not because they are needed or justified.

[@coover65]

@@hihfty I must admit I am amazed at the number of volunteer FDs in the US, and seeing such departments in what we'd consider in Australia "outer suburbs of a larger town". We also have volunteer fire crews, mainly attached to bush fire brigades. In most towns with a population of about 10k or more you'll find professional firefighters with a fleet of two or three trucks or more depending on demand. I really take my hat off to those who volunteer their time to provide fire fighting services.

[@GigaTeslaFan]

Gainesville VA has a pretty cool new firehouse may be worth taking a look

Nice pickup. I was given a paper to read and while our film guy walked around. But I mixed up some of the specs and we did not realize until way after the post. Thanks for watching

I sent an email to my fire department about giving you an invite. Fun fact, some cities (like where I live) still use the callboxes. Even a news flash talks about a guy checking them. Though these callboxes are the the ones where you pull down a latch then pull down a hook. Give this comment a shoutout when you tour my local department, Cambridge Fire Department (MA).

[@HeroesNextDoor]

We would love to come see them. We will check our email everyday waiting for the invite.

what do they mean as "fire companies"? Not sure what it means.

[@HeroesNextDoor]

Fire company and fire department are interchangeable when talking

[@jaysmith1408]

Technically fire departments are wings of the borough, township, town, county, what have you. Fire companies are private, companies, that serve at the municipality’s leisure, through contract. That hardly holds up in common usage however, given that our company is the town fire department, though a separate non profit company, is overseen by our borough.
