Motor-Driven Fire Apparatus to Supplant Horses in Washington
Officials expect the Washington Fire Department to replace horse drawn equipment with motor driven fire engines and trucks. Experiments in New York and other cities show motors outperform horses and cost less to operate. A horse drawn engine costs about 5500 plus 900 for three horses and 75 for harness, while a motor engine costs around 10000 with lower upkeep, though exact longevity is unclear. The shift will depend on station construction and apparatus wear, and elimination may take years.
