    I don't know if this has been asked before, but do the DFD firehouses get decorated for Christmas?

    Gotta love that '62 Chrysler chief's car.

    Probably had the legendary 413 V-8 under the hood.

    When I was attending Wayne Elementary School [[Lakepointe and Courville) from 1944 to 1951, the school did not allow any students to park their bikes at school except for the safety patrol boys. There was a fire station at Lakepointe and Whittier about a block from the school. The firemen allowed the kids to park their bikes in the back yard of the station and walk the last block to the school. The station had two bays for an engine company pumper and a battalion chief sedan. Damn if I can remember the company or battalion numbers now.

    Hemrod, where you parked your bike at Lakepoint and Whittier is the quarters of Engine Co. 58 , established December 1928 and is still in service today
