    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Photos from 1910-1920, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    LOC: Bain's caption says "engines," not "engine."
  • Kilted Cowboy said:
    the testing and coverage of these engines may be related to the famous triangle shirt factory fire and the terrible deaths, from 1911 www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/triangle/triang...

    In 1913, the International Association of Fire Engineers (now the International Association of Fire Chiefs) held their 41st annual conference in New York City. One component of the event was a competition for the newly developed motorized pumper. On September 3 at 6:30 a.m., the 12-hour pump test began with 11 pieces of apparatus competing. A length of hard suction hose was used by each engine to draft water from the Hudson River. Overall performance of the equipment was determined by using a point system. The motor had to remaining running during the complete 12-hour test period. Apparatus from the following companies began the event. Ahrens-Fox American LaFrance - Two units Knox Luietweiler Nott - Two units Robinson - Two units Seagrave Waterous Eight of the engines completed the test. The Luietweiler, one Nott and one Robinson failed. The Ahrens-Fox earned the highest score. In addition to this information, I have added notes to the other photos in this grouping. In this photo: You can just make out one of the Nott pumpers behind the people.

    Seems to be a 4-4-0T of some sort.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Or maybe a 4-4-0. According to wikipedia the last 4-4-0T was withdrawn in 1939.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Yep. Apparently it's a GNIR class PP 4-4-0.
