Great pics. But the photo on Page 2, row 2 first pic is actually Pittsburgh. It is titled "Philly waterfront 1982".

R 1 ...excellent shots....i think the one shot could be 232 & not 230.....232 was quartered w/231 prior to the TIN HOUSE being built on Rockaway & Bergen.

Thanx, smoke . . . with the possible exception of the photo of E 216's Ward LaFrance Firebrand  ( :D ). . . one of the ugliest fire trucks ever built.

The Firebrand was nicknamed by the members as "the Pagoda" at the time.
