They will be "going dark".
Midlands firefighters will go into escalation this weekend due to industrial action over pay and conditions.
Fire stations will 'go dark' from 8am Saturday morning.
This means they will have no internal communication, bar informing the senior roster when they leave the scene.
Retained firefighter in Mullingar Tony Sheeran says communication will only be made if lives are in danger:
