Ludwigs Corner Fire Company was dispatched full company to assist Twin Valley Fire Department with a house fire off of Bulltown Road. Along with Lancaster County Tanker 34. Initial notes for the incident stated that there was heavy smoke coming from the roof and from the front door. Upon the arrival of Engine 69-2 the crews laid a line through the door to find that the fire had almost smothered itself completely. Crews from both Station 73 (Ludwigs Corner) and Station 69 (Twin Valley) worked to make sure there were no "hot spots" or small fires anywhere in the building and then worked to disassemble and discard all things effected by the fire. During the fire TVFD was also dispatched to an auto accident on Rt. 23. Ridge Fire Company assisted on the auto accident.

Vehicle Rescue Training
Monday, November 7, 2011 
-
Crews from the Ludwigs Corner Fire Company train every week on Monday nights. They train for all types of calls that they could potentially be called to. One of the types of training that is greatly focused on is vehicle rescue training. The crews simulate an actual accident with rescue dummies as patients. The crew is dispatched by other crew members and given the same information they would be given in a real situation. Once the rescue crew on the rescue truck arrives on "the scene" they go doing all of the jobs they normally would. Such as, stabilization, EMS, dismembering the vehicle. They also try new techniques for extricating patients from vehicles and work with an array of tool types to make sure their skills stay sharp on all the equipment they carry.


 
   
   
Auto Accident shuts down Rt.100
Saturday, November 5, 2011 
-
The Ludwigs Corner Fire Company was dispatched to an auto accident at Rt.100 and Nantmeal Rd. upon arrival on the scene which was right in front of the fire house it was confirmed to be on vehicle into a telephone pole with the high tension lines against the pole. However there were also reports as an accident at Rt.100 and Horseshoe Trail. Police requested that the road be shut down so that both scenes could be taken care of. Once everything was cleaned up and the patients taken care of, the LCFC returned the short distance back to their station but not for to long. The LCFC was then dispatched for wires in front of their station. The wires that had been dislodged because of the earlier auto accident had started to rub against the pole and cause arching and fire to rush down the pole. Fire Police was dispatched to close down Rt.100 at Horseshoe Trail and Rt.100 and Birchrun Road.
