My first Engine was a two seat cab with a bench seat that was open facing backwards with a short roof covering us. I can still smell the diesel from the old Mack as we charged down W. Main & Harrison. 1983. Finished in 2020. A great ride.

Ahh the good ole days! People working in town AND volunteering. First truck out in minutes with a 6 man crew. Don't think that happens today. Nope, In some areas put the call out 2, maybe 3 times to get hopefully 2 people to show up in 10 minutes.

There is a bell on the outside of the Clinton, NY fire station. The bell rings for 15 or 30 seconds before the famous foghorn type siren goes off. It is common for people in the park to cover their ears when they hear the bell, knowing that the loud horn will be sounding soon. It is very loud if you are very close by and especially outdoors. The sound of the Clinton fire horn can be heard for miles, depending on any wind conditions. In modern times, with all manner of electronic pagers and cell phone alerts, people may ask why fire departments still employ their loud sirens at the fire houses. While they may not be solely depended upon to call volunteers to the station, they are a reliable backup. They also alert the general public; they can even alert motorists to be aware and to get off of the roadways if they are able to do so. Perhaps most importantly is for the people involved in a motor vehicle accident or structure fire or any call for help to let them know that HELP IS ON THE WAY. When your house is on fire or someone is suffering a critical medical event, that loud siren at the fire house can be the most comforting sound you may ever hear.

@@johnarat9618 It’s definitely Clinton, NY. That was the question. Heard that fire whistle every noon for decades and we used to go in the station to look at the light on the map to see where the fire they were out fighting was when we were kids. As for your question, I could only guess it has something to do with the footage being old.

I watch this and see danger big time, standing up putting on your gear and breathing app that is heavy and can throw you off balance while the rig is speeding is a very bad idea, I started riding the tailboard and loved it until ...... one day a fellow fireman getting ready to arrive on scene fell off and was killed. His funeral was one of the saddest days in my life. My department stopped using those rigs and used rigs with jump seats the next day and and required the use of seat belts in the cab. No standing up. No one had died as a result of the changes. I still remember riding the tailboard with fondness.
