Multi alarm fire at the A&P lower King st in downtown Port Chester in 1958 or so. Engine 58 [1944 Mack L-85], Engine 63 [1952 American Lafrance 700], and Ladder 31 [1954 American Lafrance 700 100 ft tiller] attack it from the side ! note the famous Texas lunch is across the street in the back ground .

Now those are some Classic Trucks indeed. They don't make trucks like that anymore. (Got to love the Gold Leaf Design on the ALF's)

You can NOT get a chili dog at Texas lunch, you get a hot dog "Texas", other wise you are from out of town, Way out!

And don't call it Hubba's!!

That's the "rear" entrance of Hubba's/Texas Lunch that's visible (for those of us folks that consider Main Street the main drag). This photo looks like it was taken looking east from the train tracks.

Saw the old E59 parked in front of HQ at lunch today. I should get some photos while she's still around.

Great shot, thanks very much.
