Experience the intensity of a historic fire scene in this black and white film from 1897. Witness ten pieces of firefighting apparatus in action, fully manned and under full headway. Several engines and wagons, drawn by three horses abreast, rush by as firemen put on their coats. The speed and power of the engines, accompanied by white horses, create a truly startling spectacle. Feel the adrenaline as engines are fired up and dust, steam, and smoke fill the air.
