LBFD Museum Rigs on Display
By JJohnson | March 16, 2009
On February 26Th, 2009 our Long Beach Fire Department Museum (formerly Station 10) had all of their rigs on display at once. SPAAMFA – The Society for Preservation & Appreciation of Antique Motorized Fire Apparatus, were having their annual So cal event in Pomona and wanted to see our museum. This association is run by individual owners and enthusiast and bring their antique rigs all over the country for display.
LBFD rigs were all on display for the first time ever and the Museum wanted to show their dedication to restoring all of the apparatus they have. The people who work at the museum are all volunteers and have various backgrounds and do the work on their own. They get money from donations given to the museum. The rigs in the picture, from left to right are as follows:
- 1929, 1926, 1924, 1922 Ahrens Fox’s
- 1921 Seagrave Ladder Tiller- truck
- 1958 Mack B125, Thermodyne
