A lot of decisions made by the city make no sense. Why in the world would they have a truck in Fireman's Hall that isn't even an original Philly piece at all (the American La France pumper that I believe was from Scranton), while the beautiful Giant Deluge and the 1949 Autocar are footballed around from one firehouse to another in a state of limbo for decades. Not to mention the Maxim-Magirus ladder that was so unceremoniously given up recently.
And don't even get me started on the stupid plan to demolish the old Fire Headquarters on Race Street (along with the rest of the neighborhood that's already gone). If THAT were the fire museum instead of old Engine 8's station on 2nd Street, they could fit all the toys and more there.
