Rick, I remember going to the Chief's show in KC back in 1996 with Dave D. and passing by the 19s and seeing that Seagrave pumper sitting inside. Nice rig! Isn't there a ladder truck that also runs out of that house?

Jeff,



The last classic Fire House in the City No.19 WPA building built in 1939. Until 2006 they FH19 was Pumper 19 and Truck 7 (tiller). Due to some on going issues the Fire Chief moved FH19 over a few blocks and at the same time closed FH32 on Main Street. The new current FH 19 houses Pumper 19, Pumper 32, Truck 7, and Car 106. The move left a large coverage gap south of the County Club Plaza old FH32 first due. The New current FH 19 is the only double pumper house in the city now.



In 1996 they were running as Pumper 19, 1987 E\-One Hurricane 1500/500 White over Lime Engine. Truck 7 was a 1986 Seagrave Tiller 100ft Ladder White over Lime.



Stay Safe Brother,

Rick
