Old fire apparatus is amazing to look at ... Sometimes you find yourself wondering how whole cities managed not to burn to the ground with greater frequency.
I've had an enjoyable time at several fire musters, one in Philadelphia on the Ben Franklin Parkway as part of a national convention with sponsorship by Firehouse Magazine.
Wissahickon Fire Company in Ambler has a human-drawn (as opposed to horse-drawn) firewagon that's pretty neat to see.
