My heart skipped a beat when I saw the hazmat truck. Gorgeous

[@lucaslaughing]

Yeah, I think Seattle has great looking 'rescue' rigs- I was really glad I got out in time to catch this one!

[@jackhollandcsxnsandawvrfan3800]

Gotta love those gorgeous specialty units!!

[@lucaslaughing]

I agree - thanks for watching!

[@jeffturkel3344]

That is one impressive HAZMAT rig

[@lucaslaughing]

I agree - thanks for watching!

[@TGGGlobalEmergencyResponses]

Very nice rare catch!

[@lucaslaughing]

Thanks! Yeah, this one was super exciting to catch!

[@SoCalFB2]

I envy you. Seattle looks like a beautiful place to live and you have such good response videos!

[@lucaslaughing]

Thanks! Seattle is beautiful, although the grey does get oppressive during the winter/spring. But, the sunny days and the scenery totally make up for it.

[@SoCalFB2]

lucaslaughing still sounds cool to me.

[@rrobertsnot5150]

Thank you! This was definitely the first time I'd seen the Hazmat unit responding, so I was pretty excited to catch it.

It looks like Seattle bought the same truck 4their HEAVY RESCUE 1,THE MARINE DIVE UNIT,PLUS THEIR HAZ-MAT TRUCK.THEY ALL LOOK LIKE THE SAME TRUCK....

[@lucaslaughing]

Yeah, they definitely look the same - I guess SFD found a model that they liked :-)

[@chrispartlow4533]

lucaslaughing Right on or they got a good deal on 3....

[@eriksdaddy]

I believe the Hazmat Unit seen here is now Hazmat 80. They got a new one in 2018 or 2019. Rescue 1’s old unit is now Marine 1. Rescue 1 got a new rig in 2013.

[@SilverSprings95]

it's HM77 on that back of the Hazmat Truck

[@eriksdaddy]

Before they changed it to Hazmat 1 that’s what it was. Same as Marine 1 used to be Unit 99

[@fightingirish8584]

Is their hazmat a dedicated staff? Or cross staffed.

[@lucaslaughing]

I'm not positive. I know for major hazmat calls, pretty much all of station 10 responds as part of a task force, but I'm not sure exactly how the staffing works.
