I may be wrong but wasn't Engine 27 assigned there for a short stint, and Battalion Chief 5 was also assigned there.

Yep...Forgot about Engine 27 being there initially.

Nice shots, Sam. Are these from the Thrill Show yesterday? I saw the Fire Museum's Mack Water Tower heading up York Road late in the day, so I am sure they were there as well.

[SLIPPERYSAM]

Yes It was there but, I didnt get a good shot of it.

Got this old beauty posed before the thrill show last week. Thanks to Steve Heaver and crew for moving it before the show got too busy.

My dad was assigned to this company when he graduated Fire School in 1956. Back then it had the solid rubber Christie wheels on the back end.

That was also when the streets of Baltimore had cobblestones and Trolly Car tracks most everywhere downtown. It made for some interesting driving

on runs.

Is this one of Seagrave Ladders that was rejected by BCFD back in 2004?



Thanks!

Frenchy,



They weren't rejected. They were used in front line service as Trucks 15 & 21. However they were short lived. One went to Canada I think and the other last I knew of it was being used as a Seagrave Loaner.

Right Tim, they should have been rejected though. Truck 15 was out of service more then it was in service. I think the one on fenton's site is old Truck 15.
