1942 Seagrave 75' Aerial Ladder Truck on the left. 1947 Buffalo triple combination pumper with a 1000 gallon per minute pump on the right. The '47 Buffalo was designed during the "streamlined" era of truck manufacturing. The pump panel and most of the ladders and hard suction hoses were stowed inside the hose body and out of sight. Thanks to Aberdeen Fire Chief Dave Carlberg for contributing information.
