In this 10,000 square foot gallery are 27 motorized pieces dating from 1897 to 1930. Most of the pieces are American. Makers include American La France, Seagrave, Robinson, Ahrens-Fox, Mack, Howe, Brockway, Merryweather, Christie, Moreland, Kissell and Waterous. Among the rarest pieces is an 1897 Champion water tower that was motorized with a Christie tractor in 1915, a Waterous hand or horse drawn gasoline powered pumper and a Brockway chemical car. A Merryweather Braidwood body style fire engine built in London in 1913 was used by the fire department of Lima, Peru. All of these pieces are fully restored. A 1951 American La France Model 700 engine from Miami, Arizona, is available for boarding.
