Auto body garage in Clarksburg, West Virginia

Here is some video of an autobody business in Clarksburg, VA. Should have used the big line? Large fire large water, maybe should have gone with a 2 1/2. This video from the dash cam in the engine.

 

This is from Wednesday evening in Clarksburg, West Virginia. The video is from a dashcam on Engine 71 of the Nutter Fort VFD. Here is the account from the department's website:

At 19:42, Company 15 (West Milford VFD), Engine 71 (Nutter Fort VFD), and Engine 51 (Mt. Clare VFD) were alerted for a Structure Fire on Country Club Road near Sandhill in Clarksburg. Engine 71 (w/6-AC Richards) and Chief 7 (Rohrbough) hit the street seconds later with Tanker 7 (w/2-FF Gross) not far behind. Chief 7 arrived on scene shortly after advising HC911 of an 2-stall auto body garage fully involved with possible exposures to vehicles and a nearby residence. Engine 71 arrived on scene and crews stretched an 1 ¾ cross lay and began fire attack. Crews began knocking down the bulk of the fire while making their way into the garage while other Co. 7 firefighters stretched a 2nd 1 ¾ cross lay while incoming units were ordered to supply E71 with water and to stretch our 1 ½ trash line to assist in fire suppression. Crews made fast work of the fire knocking most of it down within 25 minutes. After performing salvage and overhaul all units went ready by 22:30. EXCELLENT JOB BY ALL COMPANIES!Dashcam footage courtesy of Engine 71.
UNITS ON SCENE:
NFFD: E71, T7, Ch7 (9 personal)
WMVFD: E151, E152
