I'm glad they didn't have a fire . Because the fire truck is out of service.

Karl, this is an American LaFrance unit. It's probably a pumper. LaFrance was probably the last U.S. fire truck manufacturer to ship via railroad for finished fire trucks. This truck was built on LaFrance's Pioneer custom chassis.
