Tulsa Firefighters 1915

The Ladder truck in back is a horse drawn unit with a Christie Front Drive conversion.

 

The hose truck pulling the steam pumper may be a REO.

 

The large engine second row left is probably a 1913 Ahrens Fox. 

 

Here is another view of the Tulsa apparatus.

In the first photo, the fire truck on the left in the second row is a 1911 Robinson Fire Truck.  It is also the same fire truck in the second photo third from the left.  Notice the crank has a gear reduction and the large brass "bulb" sitting high in the back.  The details match the attached original picture and the picture of the restored 1911 Robinson Fire Truck that is located in Staunton, VA.
