Engine 9

Another view of Kalamazoo Fire Department's Engine 9, still parked in front of old Station 4. Fours has been restored; there's a picture in my brother's Flickr stream.

When I was a kid, I knew a lot about these engines; what they were designed to do, and how they differed in detail. I'm afraid that's all gone....
