Hi All,
Some Pics of Hamburg Fire appliance (typical) and ambulance .
Also to show how narrow streets are here.
The Hamburg fire service also does all the ambulance work for the city of Hamburg and firefighters are also trained as paramedics. Typically working 12 hours of ambulance and 12 as a firey.
The Hamburg fire service has 22 fire stations of which 5 are specialist and 17 are combined fire/ambulance and a further 10 stations which are ambulance only.
At our station we have a full "löschzug" which is comprised of two pump rescues a 30m ladder and a command vehicle and 5 ambulances one of which is at an outstation and one is cross manned.
Station website is at, http://www.feuerwache-stellingen.de/
I am mostly on the PR´s but also ride on the ambulances.
Im happy to answer any questions.
Cheers
Rainer
