The New York Museum of Transportation will host a fleet of antique fire trucks on Sunday, September 17, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Genesee Chapter of the Society for the Preservation and Appreciation of Antique Motorized Fire Apparatus in America (SPAAMFAA) will have their restored firefighting equipment on display for visitors to enjoy. Resplendent in bright red paint and polished metal work, these vintage vehicles will delight visitors and bring back memories of times past. Discover the difference between a “fire truck” and a “fire engine,” and find out why firemen wear red suspenders. Trolley rides, the museum, and the fire truck show are all included with the admission of $10 for adults, $9 for seniors (65+), $6 for youth (3-12). No reservations are needed.
