  1. 🔥🚒 Abandoned fire trucks left to rot in a barn, somewhere in England.

    These Dennis-Thornycroft MK9 crash tenders are specialised airfield safety response vehicles. Custom-built in the late 1970s and 1980s, they featured roof-mounted monitors capable of laying a 12m-wide foam carpet.

    After decades of service at RAF and civilian bases, these heavy machines were replaced by modern successors like the Scammell Mk 10.

  19. Here’s something we can do to revive craft machine manufacturing: socialize custom firefighting equipment building. Firefighters certainly must require equipment unique to their home terrains. And with more extreme climate conditions, adaptable and mobile equipment is also necessary. It’s time to reject capitalist obsession with the Henry Ford model. I know about an ideal factory site in Seattle area.

  22. When I rode to my house yesterday in the afternoon I felt the energy in the street was not right

    That was when I was 20 minutes out

    At three 🕞 minutes distance I was absolutely certain that a lot was wrong, and I wasn't surprised when I saw the fire trucks close to the houses 🏠 in between the tax office and the brick street.

    A massive fire 🔥 which started in an abandoned building {which burned to the ground} hit an apartment building with about 16 units, then raged through a wooden house where an acquaintance of mine lives, levelling that house in minutes. While the fire 🔥 was burning the wooden one story house was also charring the house beside it.

    The fire department had experience with a massive fire in my street more than a decade ago, came with everything {twelve trucks including tankers} and they came fast.
    Everyone who was living in the apartment building evacuated safely. A woman ♀️ who I know well confirmed that fact.
    However my acquaintance was already intoxicated by the fumes and refused to leave the house thinking that the rescue team from the fire department were robbers!
    He was standing with a shotgun ready, didn't point it at them, but refused to leave.
    The rescue team was forced to leave him behind and he fell unconscious. When they heard the thump of his corpus hitting the wooden floor, they grabbed him and rushed him to hospital, where he succumbed to the smoke inhalation.

    So the abandoned building ignited the apartment building which ignited the wooden house which charred the building beside it. In total three buildings burned, two charred and One person suffocated in the ER. The fire was under control within a very reasonable time, given the fact that my fire department does not have the equipment they need to get every year.

    My sincerest Thanks goes to the fire rescue team, because without them the whole block would have burned down...

  34. Scenes from Oroville, CA
    Firefighters staying at the hotel where I stayed in Oroville on 8/15/24. They were fighting the Park Fire, an arson caused fire that started on 7/24/24 and to date has burned 429,603 acres, the fourth largest in recorded California history. The trucks are from San Bernardino County Fire Department. #ParkFire #wildfire #handcrew #firefighters #SanBernadino #Oroville #ButteCounty #firetrucks #California
