Some more shots from the Engine 260 Fire Muster
In thispost I shared a few shots of some of the Fire Engines in the Annual Engine 260 Fire Muster here in Milford CT, and some people wanted to see some more of the fire trucks and hence I am doing this post.
Now I know a lot of kid slove seeign all the fire trucks and I will admit I am a big kid at heart as I enjoy seeign them as well
Now someone mentioned that had not seen an open-backed fire truck well there were a few of those including this old one

I notice this next one says a citizens muster team, so I guess that is a voluntary fire department, some bigger cities have a fuller funded fire department here, others are manned by volunteers, but whether a full time of volunteer firefighter, the people that do this job have my utmost respect and perhaps that why I am still a big fan of events like this
And speaking of the event, I was there for the opening ceremony and heard that all funds raised from this event would go to a local group that arranges free camps for kids of families that could not otherwise sens their kids to a camp.

And finishing off with a shot of a row on these trucks mostly in red but you can see one at the end in yellow
Now as I was preparing this I wondered why some fire trucks are yellow or white, and it appears that even though red is the most common color as they are seen as hot and easily noticeable for traffic to make way for them, some studies have shown that particular at night White or bright yellow trucks stand out more.

Now I do have plenty of more shots from this muster, but I ran out of time to add any more to this post, so in the future, I may do another post otr posts from this event.
