A couple of beautiful wagons.  Both are from York, Pennsylvania.

In the first photo the general shape of the wagon frame and its chemical basket look like the work of the Fire Extinguisher Mfg. Co.?
Take a look at the near horse too. What a beauty!

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania operated the chemical engine that is equipped with the upright tanks.  Salt Lake City, Utah has the fine looking wagon that is painted white.

I find the "details" on the building and above the bay doors absolutely awesome...a lost art.  You just don't see that today anywhere.   

Thanks Steve
