Summary
The park features a variety of vintage fire trucks, including a 1928 American LaFrance pumper and a 1941 Ward LaFrance pumper, as well as other vehicles such as police cars and ambulances.
One of the main reasons to visit Fire Truck Park is to experience the thrill of sitting inside a real fire truck and pretending to be a firefighter. Children can climb aboard the vehicles, turn on the lights and sirens, and imagine themselves rushing off to put out a fire or rescue someone in need.
In addition to the fire trucks, Fire Truck Park also features a playground area with swings, slides, and other equipment for kids to play on. There are also picnic tables and a grassy area for families to relax and enjoy a picnic lunch.
Interesting facts about Fire Truck Park include that it was once the site of a working fire station and that the vintage trucks on display have all been restored by volunteers from the Anaheim Fire Department.
The best time of year to visit Fire Truck Park is during the spring or fall, when the weather is mild and comfortable for outdoor activities. However, the park is open year-round and can be visited anytime during the day. Admission is free, and parking is available on site.
