Currently supporting our colleagues in @LincsFireRescue who are very busy with 6 pump and 12 pump fires. #Interoperability

Humbled to hear all the noise, claps and cheers of support for our NHS tonight. Due to the current situation a reduced crew from Binbrook Fire Station turned out on behalf of all the Firefighters here at Binbrook and the service as a whole to show our support. #clapforourcarers

23:16 - @LouthFire (2 crews) and @BinbrookFire attended Church Street,Louth to flat fire. Severe damage to flat and contents. Extinguished using 1 hosereel jet, 6 Breathing Apparatus & 3 Thermal Imaging Cameras. Cause: Carelessly discarded smoking material

We have 3 appliances - @Caistor_Fire Lincoln North & @HumbersideFire Brigg on Moor Lane, Caistor dealing with a shed on fire. 2 further crews en-route from Immingham East & @marketrasenfire shed is approx 200 x 30 metres, crews using hose reels & 1 main jet. Updates to follow

18:12 @BinbrookFire attended Kirmond Road, Binbrook to a chimney fire. Crew used one 9 metre ladder, one roof ladder and one hose reel jet to extinguish the fire that was caused by a build up of soot.

16:26 @BinbrookFire and @LouthFire attended a 3 vehicle RTC on Main Road, Burgh on Bain. Crews used Holmatro cutting gear and a Hilti Saw to remove the roof of 1 vehicle to release 1 casualty.

Tonight on drill night we had RTC training with a slight difference, 5 Firefighters, no OIC. This helps train the crews to think about things they wouldn't need to think about, for instance safe systems of work, extrication plans etc. @LincsFireRescue

On drill tonight we were getting hands on with Coldcut Cobra System. A suppression system that uses minimal water and also uses an abrasive that cuts a small hole through the exterior of a building or compartment, making it easier for extinguishment.

We currently have a large fire on Dozens Bank, West Pinchbeck. Please keep doors and windows closed if you live in the area. Updates to follow.

22:29 @BinbrookFire & @marketrasenfire attended a property fire on Kirmond Road, Binbrook. Crews used ladders, 1 hose reel jet, 1 water back-pack to extinguish the fire and small tools to isolate the gas supply.

08:38 @BinbrookFire attended a RTC on Grimsby Road, Binbrook. Crews used a ladder to release the driver and used small tools to isolate the vehicle.

2019 has been a very busy and interesting year, here are some highlights of the last year. From all the crew here’s wishing you all a safe and happy 2020. Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue #staysafe #notjustfires #teamwork

Never been more happy to know that this ugly looking bunch has each other’s back in the harshest of conditions, without them we wouldn’t be the station we are today, this lot however makes the job that much easier and proud of every single one of them. Merry Christmas boys.
