Do you know what the apparatus was in the pictures? Looks like the Ward in the middle bay.
I like the old picture of the station.
The GMC Bean is what it looks like is in the left bay

Okay Boys,
It takes someone from Minnesota to keep you current.
The left bay contains the !950 Chevrolet John Bean.
The center bay contain your 1937 Ward Lafrance Engine.
The ambulance is either the 48 or 49 Wolfington coaches.

Thanks Chief
The young man from Minnesota did pretty good, the only one he missed was the ambulance. It is one of the 1951 Cadallac/Wolfington units.
That is why I listed the photo as Circa 1952, these ambulance operated between 1951 and 1954 when they were replaced.
