The New Bedford Fire Museum is located in the former Fire Station No. 4 at the corner of Sixth and Bedford streets in that city in the U.S. state of Massachusetts. The museum has a collection of old firefighting equipment and some old fire engines. Visitors can try on old uniforms and slide down the pole.〔 Old city fire records dating to 1890 are available for research and review. Retired and active city firefighters act as docents. Rain damage to the station's roof〔 recently required the closing and renovation of the museum's second story. It reopened in July 2008.〔 〕 ==Fire Station No. 4== Housed in red brick building, Fire Station No. 4 opened in 1867 and was one of the oldest continuously operating fire stations in the state when it was closed in 1979. In 1975 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Fire Station No. 4. The museum was opened the following year. ==See also== *National Register of Historic Places listings in New Bedford, Massachusetts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Bedford Fire Museum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
