2018 photo of Tokyo volunteer minipumper
https://maps.app.goo.gl/WBe6hDYQs8iRuJNj9
not exactly sure what that is
hose loud
minipumper with maybe a portable pump on a 2 wheel trailer
perhaps each volunteer station in tokyo has a minipumper / mini van
with a portable pump on board - plus a portable pump on a 2 wheel
trailer - have never seen them towing anything with the minipumpers -
maybe the plan is to take the minipumper to the furthest incident -
and to hand draw the 2nd portable pump to a closer scene with the 2
wheel trailer
would be kinda cool to have a small pump and a small tank of water on
the minivan - and to tow a trailer with either a 2nd portable pump or
a tank of water - they could drop the portable pump on the trailer at
a cistern - and lay a supply line to a fire - and use 1 or 2 lengths
of hose as attack lines

Tokyo - Rinko Fire Station
https://maps.app.goo.gl/3dGoXHPfATBECG1n6
94 photos here at google maps
great views of skyline
huge fireboat(s)
boat launch rail system
at least 2 photos in cabin of huge fireboat - maybe 5 portable radios
on the counter
3 floors - huge helipad on roof
seems to have 2 engines and 1 ladder and 1 command van and 1 suv
1 photo shows 2 plaques - rinko fire station and rinko volunteer fire
corps hq - https://maps.app.goo.gl/EfUEkZz5ugtgrv57A
fire station = battalion HQ in usa terminology
fire brigade = fire volunteers (so there is maybe a volunteer fire
truck here also - and maybe 1 paid person to oversee the vols)
also photo of schooner and bridge and 2 PR trucks
are they giving rides to the little kids in the aerial?

we added fire station maps for several counties - we should have a map
for every county in New York now
added - Livingston + Madison + Niagara + Orleans + Oswego + Otsego +
Tioga + Wyoming + Yates County
all seem to be straightforward except for Niagara County which seems a
little convoluted (with historic FD names mixed in with other names) -
the Niagara County map needs more work - maybe Radio Reference wiki
will have a good list - the county website does have a list of FDs
iirc but they dont have a list of all of the fire stations

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FuyWRknwwQMDfHj1kqZthOtH3Kj3xOvP/view
lots of info here in the Selectmens minutes
AMR got shafted - they proposed using 1 ambulance as a starter - town
was incensed they would propose just 1 ambulance - but AMR clearly
stated they could provide more ambulances for more money - but there
was a big song and dance of BS that won the day
looks like Gokden cross Amb got shafted and Rescue Inc also
not sure what the final outcome will be
Brattleboro population is only 12,000 - shouldnt be that hard to
figure out what to do
for starters - why doesnt the ambulance operate from the hospital? -
at night the ambulance crew can help out the ER crew - as they do in
billions of hospitals around the world

yoiu would think that google maps would pay much closer attention to

If anyone is wondering what happened, it's cause as soon as the birds
all suddenly flew at the same time, it meant the weight of the birds
made the wires bounce and touch or get very close to each other
causing the electric to jump. A few birds might have been injured or
killed but most would be okay as they all went at the same time and
had cleared the area.

@dubmob151 I can see how you came to this conclusion. But no, it
would be a major problem if that was the case and the power lines
would have to be laid out completely differently as large groups of
birds are super common around the world. I have no idea why this
failed so badly. Maybe a storm had past though recently.

@randomly1552 you think the weight of the birds were actually enough
to spring board the high tension lines to the point where they
contacted? That would seem more of a design flaw, as it wasn't like it
was a flock of 20lb Thanksgiving turkeys taking off. That I could

totally weird train crossing - 2 crossings next to each other with 2
traffic lights and a stop sign - actually 3 stop signs - there are
also 2 stop signs beyond that 2nd crossing to right iirc

Re: wawona's new fire station at yosemite national park
built 2016 actually
WAWONA WILDLAND FIRE FIGHTING FACILITY
Yosemite National Park, California
Siegel & Strain provided design, value analysis, construction
documents and construction administration for the new Wawona Wildland
Fire Fighting Facility. The facility includes apparatus bays, work
areas, training room, offices and support areas.
The building is designed to easily add future bunk rooms and a fitness
room. The project focused on strategies for being energy efficient on
a tight budget. Construction completed in 2016.
SIZE: 5,020 sf
COST: $3.2M
STATUS: Construction completed 2016
CLIENT: National Park Service
===================
you can tell its goofy - its called a wildland fire facility but those
are 2 structural engines right there in the closeup photos - and they
are the rigs that are based there / quartered there - there also might
be a wildland engine or two there also - lets check wildcad
wildcad today shows 4 wildland engines at yosemite - all out of
service for the winter maybe - mechanically in service but not staffed
unless they can call someone back to duty or if a structural
firefighter puts on a wildfire hat) - E31 TY3 at El Portal - E32 TY3
at Wawona - E33 TY3 at Valley - E61 TY6 at El Portal - there probably
is a USFS E34 at Hodgdon Meadows also - Water Tender 2 is at El Portal
also - hope that is in service for fire calls in between the fire
stations - like a big bus or truck fire - maybe its not worth it for
the winter

The Subway Disaster That Changed Firefighting

The in-depth story of the King's Cross Station Fire 1987 - The Subway
Disaster That Changed Firefighting. The London Fire brigade receives a
call to respond to one of London's underground stations. The King's
Cross is on fire. Four engines are dispatched to the scene and arrive
within minutes. The blaze is at an escalator leading down to one of
the station platforms. It's only a small fire though, nothing a hose
spray can't handle. At least, that's what they think. Instead of a
small fire, the London Tube is struck by the worst blaze in its
history.

Israel on Oct. 7, killing 1,200 and taking 240 hostage.

game changers in the fire service
major game changers in the fire service
switching from hand drawn to horse drawn to motor powered vehicles
introduction of mobile two way radios - made dispatch much faster in
some situations
sprinkler systems
widespread telephone service - made reporting of fires faster and more accurate
widespread cellular phone service - for fast reporting of urban and
suburban incidents outside of buildings
smoke detectors brought residential fire deaths way down
improved bunker gear - ??? - has it made anyone safer or fire attack
more effective?
upgrade to SCBA - certainly has made entry into dangerous areas much safer
fire protection engineering - high rises and refineries do not go up
in flames daily - some engineers must be doing something right
somewhere
otherwise - hose is still hose - ladders are still ladders - axes are
still axes - water is still water (although FDNY tried Rapid Water -
and some FDs tried CAFS - Boston FD for one)
less successful upgrades - master plans - pre plans - yellow - mini
pumpers - tiller trucks - unions - oaths of office - management school
for chiefs - 24 on / 72 off - MDTs (mobile data terminals - except for
getting directions and addresses - have not heard of any lives saved
by having a preplan on a MDT)

small ED is 15 minutes away
should you head to the small ED? - do they have a helipad? is the helo
coming? can you rendezvous with the helo halfway between the scene and
the trauma center? what can the small ED do that the helo cant do? for
any medical situation
can you have the helo go to the small ED? what gives the best patient
outcome? is there a MD on the helo? would it make any difference? for
stroke and heart attack and trauma - gonna need surgery
could you fly an OR team to the small ED? a surgeon and a gas passer
and a scrub nurse - whatever that is

fire is out - maybe just batt 31 responded - he brought Eng 2 which is
a big TY1 pumper afaik - 758 pm est - cancel any other units if anyone
else paged
engine 2 seemed to be on direct but batt 31 seemed to be on a repeater
- batt 31 was loud and clear on the repeater as was the dispatcher -
engine 2 on direct was just barely breaking squelch but the dispatcher
was loud and clear when talking to him - strange

CITY OF KEENE NH SIGNS AGREEMENT WITH CHESHIRE EMS FOR BACKUP AMBULANCE SERVICES
https://keenenh.gov/fire/press-releases/city-keene-signs-agreement-cheshire-ems-backup-ambulance-services
dec 14 2023 press release
======================
bottom line - looks like deluzio ambulance and rescue inc have bit the
dust pretty much - looks like the fire unions did a 180 on the county
ambulance service
possibly at this time - keene fd still operates 2 ambulance 24/7 -
cheshire county might run 1 ambulance 24/7 - brattleboro fd might
operate 1 or 2 ambulances 24/7 now - maybe dummerston vt and newfane
vt and marlboro rescue in vt have started to operate their own
ambulances
none of the outlying towns around keene nh nor brattleboro vt have
ever operated their own ambulances - they always relied on ambulances
coming from 'downtown'
wait till the hospitals step in and take over everything - which they
probably should - the medics can help staff the ERs late at night

Keene council OKs negotiation of 90-day contract with Rescue Inc.

this is related to the earlier item about Rescue Inc in Brattleboro VT
DeLuzio Ambulance closed down in Keene NH
this is all so messed up - the conflation of 'public good' and greed
is not a good thing
willing to be that there is no info available about the net worth of
the owner of deluzio nor the rescue inc top people

Canaan Vermont - very interesting
per https://maps.vermont.gov/e911/Html5Viewer/?viewer=e911responder
Town of Canaan Vermont is covered by Beecher Falls FD + 45th Parallel
Ambulance + Derby Vermont State Police
however - the PSAP is at Williston VSP which is way across at the west
side of the state - police dispatch is from Williston VSP also - but
fire and ambulance dispatch is by the Colebrook New Hampshire PD - the
ambulance is based in colebrook nh also iirc
AND - Beecher Falls FD is the first due FD for areas in Vermont, New
Hampshire, and Quebec Canada - we imagine that 911 calls from Canada
go to a Canadian PSAP and then they call Colebrook NH PD Dispatch if
they want Beecher Falls FD to respond - not sure if 45th Parallel Amb
serves in Quebec or not
note - Beecher Falls FD and 45th Parallel Ambulance also covers Norton
VT and other areas in Vermont
there are 2 ESN in Vermont that get primary service from Colebrook NH
FD - 3 ESN that get coverage by Stratford Hollow NH FD - 2 ESN that
get covered by Groveton NH FD - 1 ESN covered by Lancaster NH FD - 4
ESN covered by Groveton NH Ambulance - 2 ESN covered by Weeks Memorial
Hospital Amb in Lancaster NH - think that covers them all - just
eyeballing the map
there are a couple of other VT ESN that are covered by out of state
providers - over by granville ny and shushan fd in ny - maybe more
also
who dispatches weeks memorial hosp amb? that might be interesting -
too many questions - not enough time

august 28 2023 article
===================
https://maps.vermont.gov/e911/Html5Viewer/?viewer=e911responder
this now shows Brattleboro FD-EMS as the ems provider in Brattleboro
it shows west dummerston fd-ems for dummerston
it shows newbrook fd ems for newbrook
it shows newbrook fd ems for townshend
it shows marlboro rescue for marlboro
it shows rescue inc just for vernon and guilford
my my
================================
history
there were 2 ambulance services in brattleboro - rescue inc had 2
stations and was the primary provider for several towns - there also
was a funeral home that had an ambulance and they did transfer work -
maybe even advanced interhospital transfers - iirc they closed like in
2018 - brattleboro fd has 2 stations and are all fully paid staff -
but iirc the west station only had 2 people on duty 24/7
must check local news for updates in the last 6 months

iirc there is a fire station shown in Norton VT - but that might not
