The Steam Fire Engine and the Old-time Fire Bell

The steam fire engine on display in Carillon Park represents the third, and perhaps most colorful, phase of mans long battle against fire. During the time of the bucket brigade, fire-fighting was carried on without the help of machinery. A great step forward occurred with development of hand-operated pumping machines in the early 18th Century. Later, the steam fire engine replaced human muscle in the operation of the pumps. The modern era of fire-fighting began with use of the internal combustion engine for both motive and pumping power. Various photographs and drawings in this booklet were reproduced through the courtesy of the following: The H. V. Smith Museum of The Home Insurance Company granted permission to reproduce drawings and pictures appearing on Pages 3, 6, 7, 9, 11, 14 and 15; The Dayton Daily News, the Dayton Journal-Herald and the American-LaFrance-Foamite Corporation also contributed photographs. The steam fire enginelike the Conestoga wagon, the Concord coach and the canal boathas faded from the American scene. But as long as man thrills to the battle against fire, as long as he is intrigued by intricate machinery and stirred by bold actions, this wondrous vehicle is not likely to be forgotten. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
