  1. When I was a Vol FF, we could run Red Lights, but had to have a siren also. We could keep red lights in our vehicle for scene warning without a siren, but could not drive with it active then. Vilas County, Wisconsin, USA.

    That was quite a while ago though, so I don't know if the laws have changed now or not. I see lots of Vol FF vehicles around my area, they do have lights on them, and all appear to be Red.

  2. Yahoo News reporting now 3 dead. Everyone is lucky it wasn't worse, and also lucky that so many Police, Fire, EMS, and Military were on hand already to help the injured. How much worse this could have been.

    I know if I'd been a Fire/EMS there, I'd have run in just like all our brothers and sisters always do. God Bless the families affected, and may we find the people who did this and bring justice to them!

  3. Looking forward to the possibility of having to use tankers. When I was younger I joined my hometown volunteer department, and we didn't have any normal hydrants, just ones called DRY HYDRANTS which were basically a pipe that ran directly into the river/lake it was next too, just made hooking up easier than having to throw out the float dock to fill the tankers!

    Ah, good memories!

  4. That fan light on the front is unique to Seagrave Apparatus I believe. Maybe try their website for more pics and angles. www.seagrave.com. I'm a little familiar with both Seagrave and Pierce firetrucks as both have plants here in Wisconsin. Pierce I drive past every day on my way to work in Appleton, WI, and Seagrave is in Clintonville, WI. Both companies have a photo gallery section on their site, maybe not perfect but might give you some more angles of models, just have to add the right paint schemes for specific departments.
