On my only visit to Hamilton, one station officer told me of a department policy that forbid pulling apparatus outside for photos. He would only allow me to photograph them where they were. I did the best I could, as these were apparatus you don't see everyday. At the next station, I was advised that he was a liar and no such policy existed.
