With appropriate pomp and circumstance, the noble Number 1 fire truck of the Oakland Volunteer Fire Department, a 1930 American LaFrance pumper, was on Tuesday officially housed in its new home, the soon-to-be-opened Garrett County Museum of Transportation. The museum, a project of the Garrett County Historical Society and funded significantly by the Naylor Family Trust, is set to be officially launched later this month, although the doors were opened for the firefighters and many residents who attended the evening ceremony. While some were saddened at the thought of Number 1 no longer being driven, officials explained that the engine can indeed still be used in parades and other events, as it now has a special gas tank that can be quickly attached or removed as needed. (The vehicles in the museum cannot have any gasoline in them, for fire safety.) Photo by John McEwen.
