Central Fire Station 1922

Central Station in the summer of 1922

This was either a 4th of July celebration or a presidential visit in the summer of 1922. To the far left you can see the 2 newly purchased 1922 Model "A" Ford Fire Trucks for Gonic & East Rochester. Next to them you can see the 1916 American Lafrance Triple Combination Chemical Truck, besides that in the middle bay is the horse drawn Chemical  Ladder Truck. It is unclear which Hose Company sits immediately to the right of the ladder company but to their right is the Lafrance Steamer purchased in 1917. At far right is an additional Hose Company of which identity is also unknown. Just to the right of the center bay immediately left of the dark horse is Chief Nute.

If anyone has any information on the identities or on the pictures itself, please contact: Mark Dupuis
