(Scroll down to see enlargement.)

Behind them is Engine 3, a 1960 Ford
built by H & H of Jersey City. It had
a front mounted Hale 500gpm pump,
2 speed rear axle and vacuum assist
mechanical brakes. No power steering.

The firehouse would undergo an
expansion ten years later to
accomodate a new 1972 Hahn pumper.
(The footprint of the firehouse
in the photo is the present center
bay of today's structure.)
