1876 2-wheel hose cart

1876 LaFrance 2-wheel hose cart.  In 1876 when the Reno FD bought the 1876 LaFrance Steamer they also purchased two 2-wheel hose carts and 1000' of hose.  This photo was taken during a drill on the Plaza ca. 1883.  This picture was cropped from the larger photo dated 1883 of the Engine House in the section on Stations.  Photo credit:  Nevada Historical Society.
