Default Fire Engine rolling out of the station

ok so i need some help here please....

Trying to get the fire engine rolling out of the station with a smooth blur from front to back keeping the background objects in focus. I have tried the technique of longer exposure of anywhere from 8-15 seconds as the engine pulls out.. Also panning the camera just as the exposure comes to an end... These are the results.

Specs listed below on the shots:
picture #1: ISO 400
Shutter speed of 15 sec
Auto white balance
Shutter Priority mode(auto selects correct aperture)

Picture #2
ISO 400
10 Sec shutter
Auto white balance
Shutter priority

Picture #3
ISO 800
Shutter speed 6
Auto White balance
shutter priority

Im hoping to see how i can improve the shots drasticlly.
