Reliance Fire Company Fire Truck Museum and Antique Fire Truck Restoration Facility

Welcome to The Reliance Fire Museum Web Site!

The Reliance Fire Museum is dedicated to the preservation, restoration, and operation of fire apparatus. Our collection includes everything from a 1901 Waterous horse drawn steam pumper to a 1958 Pirsch 100' tillered aerial.
 
We have preserved many of the techniques used in the original construction of older apparatus.  These include gold leaf decoration and striping, spinning of metal pieces such as steamer crowns, and rebuilding of engine and pumps with leather seals and/or rubber valves.  Contact us for details.

Our apparatus can often be seen at both local events and SPAAMFAA events around the country. Take a look at our upcoming events page to see if we'll be near you any time soon. 

Visitation is currently by appointment. If you would like to visit, email us at our link listed on the web site.
