In Hallowell for the past few centuries there has been many changes in fire technology from the Hallowells first fire engine the cascade hand tub to the Lion and Torrent. For example, the Tiger or the Cascade Hand Pump, both of which were fire fighting technology in their time. For the past 300 years different types of fire fighting technology have come through the fire department. Every type of technology has a place in history, make sure you know about them!
