Boston Fire Department History

Old Boston Fire Trucks.

[@alatherley]

Great pics. I actually remember driving some of the rear mount E Ones from the eighties and early nineties.

[@owensweetland342]

Great rigs! Especially the Ward cabovers, Seagrave tillers, and closed cab Maxims.

[@gogetthegoose1]

Great pictures! It's so tough to find these ricks on video actually responding. I look everywhere. But the pictures are great

[@shawnwatson2shawnwat]

Just look up Boston fires from the 40s, 50s, 60s, and up on RUclips.

@@shawnwatson2shawnwat believe it or not I have. It's really hard to find.

The white tiller at 57 mark was the only 125 ft tall America France tiller ever built. I believe the service less than a year before the wall fell on it

Good job !

Great video! Boy, back in those days when I was a kid, Boston had the most plain, unadorned, faded, worn and beaten up trucks.

[@stevejason5467]

They had so many tillers back in the day, now none. Wonder why

[@shawnwatson2shawnwat]

I read that new tactics and teams required new equipment and new types of trucks. They also said reliability.
