preserving the history and heritage of fire fighting. They have a number of

On this truck to the left they have a fire nozzle on top the kids can go up
and shoot water at a fake house on fire and I'm sure shoot a few of their
unsuspecting friends. The day we were there they were hosting a birthday
party for a little boy who just turned 2. So when all the people started
showing up we left. |

The Museum is located in the old Banning Fire Station 2, provided by the
City of Banning. This Seagrave Columbus Ohio caught my eye as I didn't
realize they were made in Ohio. It turns out Seagrave was founded in
Detroit, Michigan in 1881 by Fredric Seagrave and moved to Columbus, Ohio in
1891. Seagrave was acquired by the FWD Corporation in 1963 and moved their
corporate headquarters to Clintonville, Wisconsin. |
