Motorization of Engine Company No. 11

In 1914 the 1899 Metropolitan Steamer was motorized with the addition of  a 1914 Christie 2-Wheeled Tractor.  The horse drawn hose wagon was replaced with a 1914 Moreland Auto/La-France Combination Chemical and Hose Wagon.

In 1915 the Metropolitan and the Moreland were transferred to Engine Company 29 and the 1913 Gorham assigned there was moved to Engine 11.
