One of the first motorized vehicles to find a home on Disneyland's Main Street was the fire truck. Rumor has it Walt used to slide down the pole from his apartment above the fire station and would putter about in his bathrobe.
The little fire truck was designed by Imagineer Bob Gurr. It has completely modern mechanical parts wrapped in an old fashioned body. The truck is powered by a two-cylinder water pump engine. The horns, lights, and wheels are authentic. This is one of the earliest interactive attractions in the park as somebody in the back as to ring the bell.
You will experience a pleasant one-way journey down Main Street dodging pedestrians. The bell ringer has a real responsibility here. Scroll on down and take a trip on the Disneyland Fire truck.
For our soundtrack there could only be one choice - The Firehouse Five plus Two with the hit "Firehouse Stomp".
