Houston Fire Department's NEW Engine 8, Engine 1, District Chief 8 and Ambulance 8 responding with siren and lights in Downtown Houston, TX
Engine 8 is a new Spartan Gladiator High Rise Pumper, delivered earlier this year (2019). Engine 1 is a 2016 Spartan Gladiator.
Station 8 is the only station in the city with two Engine Company's. It also houses Medic 8, the Command Unit, the AmbuBus and the Rehab unit - which are not seen in this video. It does not house a ladder truck company.
My thanks to the members at Houston Fire Station 8 for their hospitality! Some cool guys here.

Hope to see some more 8 videos someday in the future. This is a great station for buffing. I’ve been coming here regularly anymore. I’ve become very familiar with HFD and the good stations

The fire station is on either Louisiana Street or Smith Street.

@sayjebenjamin6006 4 жыл бұрын

I was almost the first to catch it when I was buffing in Houston, saw it respond a few times, but never caught it on video Fun facts about HFD station 8: Station 8 is the largest fire station in the world without administrative offices Station 8 averages about 60 calls per day, making it one of the busiest in the nation Engine 8 is one of 2 high-pressure engines in the city of Houston Station 8 houses District 8, Engine 8, Engine 1, Medic 8, Ambulance 8, Mobile Command 8, MPV 6-02, and Rehab 8

Interesting info, thanks :) But are you sure that this is supposed to be the largest fire station in the world (!) without administrative offices? Here in Europe we have numerous stations with 40 truck bays and more. Even volunteer fire departments sometimes have stations with 20 bays (like station 1 in the town where I live right now) and not all of these stations have administrative offices

Sayje Benjamin in Europe they have volunteer stations with 20-50 bays sometimes, I don’t think this is the biggest

For some reason, Ambulance 8 did runs from the back while I was there, and also, they must of changed the name because when I was there, it was Medic 8 (it said M8 on it)

Okay, that ambulance is literally a rolling disaster. The lights are all only half working at best, some not at all, and I'm sorry but how friggin stupid do you have to be to mount the push bar that far off center, not realize it's messed up, and keep going with installing the rest of the equipment on it? Seriously, as someone who takes pride in the upfits I do, that bus is legitimately why we can't have nice things. Aside from that it's a great video. Don't see too much film from Houston!
