Description |
English: What happens in the firehouse when an alarm goes off? In 1916, the firemen of Seattle's Engine Company 6 posed for a photographer to show what goes on. At that time this photo was taken, the company still used horsedrawn equipment and was housed in a wood frame station on 23rd Avenue South. Like they do today, fire fighters ate and slept at the fire station while on duty. In this 1916 photo, the men of Seattle's Engine Company 6 stop in mid-stride while they pull on their trousers and rush to slide down the pole to their engines below. A row of beds stands along the wall (right). Full title: The rapid exit of Engine Co. No. 6, responding to an alarm, Aug. 6, 1916
