Great Northern Ry Pyrene Brass Fire Extinguisher with Mounting Bracket

Item Details

Description

This is a Great Northern Railway Pyrene brass fire extinguisher, complete with its mounting bracket, which is missing on most of the extinguishers we see. Brilliant brass, and an easy to read brass tag. Top pressure handle moves easily. Top of extinguisher is stamped STOLEN FROM G.N. RY. We have wondered if this was a humorous attempt by railroad administrators to keep employees from walking off the property with railroad items! A neat piece of railroad history!
