Superb catches mate, one of your best yet! ;) Love the old rotators on the CPL. I thought CPL stood for Combined Pump Ladder, but I was wrong, what does it stand for? MFRS fleet is all very old, with strobes, halogens and LEDs on Scanias, very unusual compared to other fire services who mostly have new Scanias with LEDs, yet their older stuff are Dennises with strobes/halogens. They used the wrong sirens by the way!!!
They're still a siren lol. The word siren has been around for thousands of years, long before the human use of electricity. In Greek mythology it's a beautiful creature whose loud singing sound lures sailor's in, whose ships then wreck on the coast for which the Sirens sit. LOL! But in more recent terms, a siren is a loud warning sound. Hence why they were called Air-raid sirens during the war, where a disc was span generating a 'Q siren' sound effect that would echo across the land, warning people. The prolonged use of horns by an emergency vehicle to warn people would still be called a siren.
3:15 to get mobile is atrocious. A gentle stroll to man any appliance seems the order of the day and then hang around the station further. Don't risk breaking into a sweat!
Nice video mate, shows how much everywhere has changed in past 6 years :)
It certainly does! Ever changing mate. 👍🏻

Great Catch (Even Though The Sirens Are Incorrect)
+LeoTheF1Dude 2000 Ahah! Thanks.
+LeoTheF1Dude 2000 Better than no siren though...

+CobraEmergencyVideos "wrong" siren? You make it sound like specific sirens are only for certain circumstances?
Aha no it's a fire appliance spotter thing. Merseyside usually uses two tone airhorns, my favourite type of siren.
+CobraEmergencyVideos OK, understand! :)
+CobraEmergencyVideos The difference is Two Tone Horns aren`t a siren because they`re horns and not electric xD

Hi Cobra! CPL stands for Combined Platform Ladder...You weren`t far off!

slowest turn out award goes to........
Hahahaha, totally agree
Why so slow and all the messing about???
If I remember correctly it was around shift change so they had to swap their fire kit over and of course get someone allocated to drive the CPL.
