Truck 9. This company was one of several disbanded back in July of 2000. This rig now is currently Reserve Truck 45.
What I grew up with several blocks away from home... Engine 44 & Truck 25 sitting outside in front of their house. This shot was taken about 1996.
Another shot. This was also during the time when Battalion Chief 9, and later Battalion 4, used to run out of here.
Here was Engine 44 responding down Upland Road with a spare 1974
Seagrave engine, I think RE 60, around 1995. They always used to cut through down that way on Edgevale Road to get to Falls Road and I would always be able to see them less than a block away from my front porch <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Reserve Engine 67, a 1982 Hendrickson Grumman ex-E2, also taken that same day at Steadman.
Engine Co. 6 with a 1987 Spartan/FMC backing into the house at Oldtown in the mid 1990's.
These oldies raised a question for me. Is Baltimore still using Meushaw(spl) Valves if still made? or using another brand?

During our first visit to Aerial Tower 111, the driver turned on the lights for us, which I always loved seeing as a child.
AT 111 and a spare
Seagrave engine inside the old house of 111. The building is now owned by MICA (Maryland Institute College of Art).
Old Aerial Tower 114 inside their house on Harford Rd. in Lauraville.
Another one of the old aerial towers, AT 124 inside their house at Eastern Avenue which is now where Truck 20 operates out of.
Here was another visit to AT 124 where they had just finished washing the rig outside on the front ramp.

First of all nice shots. Secondly I have a couple questions . Was the old town station a large combination station like steadman and do you have any interior shots of the old houses in balto?. I love the old traditional stations and love seeing the insides of them. If you don't have any could you point me in a direction to look. Thanks in advance.
Our first visit to Aerial Tower 128 in Fairfield.
On the other side of the bay from 128 was Reserve Truck 40, a very old spare American-LaFrance tiller. Was I believe a 1966 or 67 and was old Truck 22 and originally Truck 17.
