“We are owed nothing, but we owe the citizens of Denver everything.” - Firefighter Sean Nielson. These words capture the commitment and passion of Denver Fire Department Station 11. This station is home to 3 platoons (rotations) of two 4 member crews and runs 24/7. The large single bunkroom and shared proximity of the firefighters promote a family-like environment that is reminiscent of the early firehouse. See firsthand the pride, respect, and commitment these fine men and women have for one another, their house, and their city.
Station 11 was built in 1936, and is the second oldest active station in Denver. This beautiful historic house still utilizes the four original fire poles descending straight from the bunkroom to the bay. Very few firehouses still offer the classic firefighter thrill of bunk to rig in seconds. Greased for optimal slip be sure to get a firm grip. This 85-year-old house provides that coveted retro-style with 3 bifold door bays that currently house two units - Engine 11 and a Special Operations Rig (Rescue 1).
Station 11 is located in the Baker neighborhood and thus became known as “The Fabulous Baker Boys”. The station logo represented the 1976 American LaFrance Squirt 11 from 1987 until 1993 but when Pumper 11 replaced the Squirt in the bay the logo was updated as well.
Thank you for watching and if you find yourself in the Denver, Colorado area stop in and check it out. We are confident that they would be more than happy to open their doors and show you around. We highly recommend it!

@vinskeeter Год назад

We lived in an old carriage house next to the church at 63 Acoma st. for a year or two. Just around the corner from the fire house. I was in the "Head Start" program in 1968, and I got to do a field trip here. I wanted to slide down the pole pretty bad. So, someone held me up, and I slid down a few ft. Made my day!

@mooseriddle Год назад

@chrisjohnson667 Год назад

I lived in Littleton, Colorado for 10 years before moving back to Louisiana. Worked as a truck driver for The Rio Grande Company at 2nd avenue and Santa Fe Dr. I used to pass by the big DFD firehouse on Colfax during deliveries. Props to Denver fire and their beautiful white rigs. You guys rock.

I worked at 11's back in the 70's . Then 11's had an engine and a truck company. The engine was a Ward La France. One of 2 in the city. 7's had the other one. The truck was a 100ft midship aireal. Sorry about the spelling. It was a great house to work at

I used to drive the old #50 bus through that area and remember that Ward La France Pumper 11. That was one loud truck with it's unmuffled Detroit Diesel and Jake Brake. I knew a guy named Cambell who worked on the truck at that time. Great hearing from you!

Thank you again for your video series. The DOOR opener (Buttons) next to pole on bay floor very nice. Never heard (Oyster) term used for ( Probe) like to eat Oysters, that is a nicer term for NEW guy of gal. Because it's a Historical Building, the sleeping quarter stay open room style. I see so many NEW build station with private Rooms for crew's. It reminds me of Navy ships. The Officers get private quarters, the Sailor all sleeping in a open crew quarter. The difference is a Navy ship they put 3 bunks together, because of space on ships. Large Bulk heads water tight, so a Navy ship can keep fighting with a hit.

@otrrailroad8821 Год назад

I noticed during the tour that there 3” was rolled with the male end facing out. Firefighter Sean did say that’s part of their supply line. But usually it’s female rolled out. I’ve been a firefighter for 34 years in Toronto and we’ve never rolled it that way especially when the female end connects to the hydrant. Wonder why?

@jwh525 Год назад

The tape that was on it said, "do not use", hose rolled with the male end out indicates it's out of service in the states.

@otrrailroad8821 Год назад

@@jwh525 well ok then good to know. I knew the bottom of the hose rack was out of service but not the one that I had mentioned. We usually tag and place out of service and replaced asap. Thanks for clarifying

@ritirons2726 Год назад

OTR Railroad, here in my area we are taught to roll the male couplings in to protect the exposed threads. Other than that it doesn’t matter much since we unroll the hose before loading.

@franklewis6943 Год назад

Ease of repacking. No matter how many folds you use on a fire, the supply hose left in the bed--if any--will always have an open female at the working end. When you get back to the house (or hall, in Canadian parlance), grab a roll off the rack, thread the exposed male connector to its female counterpart in the bed, stack, then rinse and repeat until you're ready to go back in service.

@hihfty Год назад

Female threads out means hose is out of service.

@BlinkOnWheels Год назад

Why does the fire hose need to be clean?

@HeroesNextDoor Год назад

There are so many reasons.

@BlinkOnWheels Год назад

@@HeroesNextDoor is it possible you can explain or point me to a good reliable resource or some thing that explains those reasons?

@davidzook8569 12 дней назад

@BlinkOnWheels a few of the reasons are because clean hoses last longer. Hoses get drug through debris, mud, and other contaminants like broken glass, gravel, ect. It's also important that are inspected for damage. Hoses if not dried properly will also "rot" from mold and mildew if they are of the canvas covered variety. It's also good housekeeping as no one wants to pull dirty hoses out at a fire. They may literally have to drag a hose through a building to get the room with the fire. A dirty hose could ruin flooring, damage paint and drywall ect.

@timplumb21 Год назад

You said they got those rigs on the road and a couple of minutes like that's really fast 1976 or 1977 my dad and another fireman had two rigs on the road and route to a house fire and 45 seconds that's still a state record in the state of Michigan. They did it as members of the Plainfield township volunteer fire department

Is the term alarm just an equipment list for apparatus? Can you explain the difference between a 2nd alarm and a third alarm? also is A the front b the left side and c the rear and d the right side of a structure? Does the fire truck hook up to the hydrant to fill the truck tank while pumping the water out? that's alot of pressure. Thank you for sharing your videos. I'm always learning new things every day

@logangarrett2681 Год назад

yes the term alarm is a unit list that will bring a certain amount of units to the call might be 4 engines and 2 ladders and a resuce and chief and when the call is put in for a higher alarm might be 4 extra engines 2 trucks 1 resuce and more chiefs for each alarm

@MrTenor-ch5gs Год назад

An example of how alarms work here in my city 1st alarm holds the first due engine and truck second alarm brings out our second pumper and a truck from a department near by as well as another engine from a different department 3rd alarm will call 2 engine a truck and another engine and truck company from 2 other cities
