Summary
Following Fargo's purchase of a seven-acre training site, hosts Craig Nelson, Jeff Wallin, and Chris Rasmussen discuss what an “ultimate” fire training center would include. They cover practical design priorities and the advantages, including cost-saving opportunities, of a rail spur. They also discuss open hazmat and railcar training opportunities. The members of the panel emphasize realistic, incremental planning and shared resources to justify costs.
