Sacramento FD -- Hose Tender 19

This purchased slide encapsulates my two main photographic interests in one photo. Sacramento Fire Department Hose Tender 19 is seen here, with Union Pacific Railroad steamers 3985 and 8444 in the background, during the California Railroad Museum's 1981 Railfair in Old Sacramento, California. The photographer is unidentified.

 

Hose Tender 19 was built by Seagrave on a 1979 Ford C-Series chassis; it had a 1000-GPM pump and a 500-gallon water tank.
