Hose Unit 339 - 1950 Fargo 150/200?. Montreal had a number of these little hose wagons. The actual pump capacity and tank size seem to have been lost in history or at least in my memory. They were mini-pumps long before the mini-pump appeared in the early 1970's.

Thank you Ian. Great pictures. Since I grew up in N.D.G., I have to ask, where is 246.
By the way, your fire ground pictures on Mark Bindman's web site are incredible. Thank you for sharing, and would love to see more.
Have a great day
