well, this is a surprise, I've never seen a steam pumper crashed

in better days it was the above... front wheel drive is the Christie

nearly identical to the 1913 fire engine in the Nethercutt

this Christie front end is from my visit to the Hall of Flame Museum in Phoenix, the Front Drive Motor Company made everything that wasn't fighting a fire on this ladder truck. I look at it and am amazed that one company was making the power and steering section, and companies like Ahrens Fox were making the fire fighting part
