Recordist's notes
An der Feuerwache der Berufsfeuerwehr. Der Klang des Öffnens eines Garagentors, das Starten des Einsatzwagens, Verlassen der Garagen, Abfahrt und Einschalten des Signalhorns im Wegfahren. At the fire brigade. The sound of the opening of the garage door, the starting of the wagon machine, the departure and start of the signal horn fading away.
