Hey Shoe, I am quite puzzled on these plaques. Original Station 4 opened in 1887. Original Station 5 opened in 1890. Station 6 and the original Station 7 were built and opened in 1894 and Station 8 was opened in 1896 at 50 Carnegie Way. Station 9 on southside near Turner Field was opened in 1903 and Oiginal Station 10 was opened in 1905. Station 11 opened in 1907. New Station 7 was opened in 1910. Station 10 by the way was the last firehouse that Chief "Cap" Wathal Joyner opened under his watch.



Not sure about original 2 or 3 but Original 1 was 1892.



I will try and figure that one out.
