fire stations still had steam pumpers hanging out in back, though they had new fire engines


Found on http://www.shorpy.com/node/18056?size=_original#caption

often on Shorpy the commentors are very highly focused on the details and point out some cool things you might not notice... in this photo, they noticed that the steam pumper is facing the back of the room, probably because it's retired, and that the fire truck is a Seagrave from about 1916, and look at the really bad tire rubber on the left front.
