Perfect colorization again, Rob.
On B&W the fire seemed not to be so penetrating, but after your apt way of editing one can see much better the impact of such a radical event. Shows your craftsmanship in this branch of art again.

PS: had initially some problems to view your contribution at full screen size, but after opening it at a new page, I could view it 'in all its glory' (please notice the quotation marks, ☺ ).

Perfectly done Rob.
I too had a problem viewing full screen. When clicked the whole page gets a transparent grey covering. Right clicking and opening in a new tab displays the full size picture for me.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

The colourization is fantastic, had no problem opening the full view up. Anyway looks like the people are moving out as many things as possible before it reaches their house

Having been a fireman in my younger years, I find this "LaFrance-style" pumper quite fascinating. That reel at the rear bumper is what they used to roll up the hose when not in use, the hose probably not more than 2" in diameter. The square white tank in the middle of the truck has to be the water reservoir, probably not more than 500 gallons, so they had to be judicious when putting out a fire to not waste a drop (which means they could only have controlled the burn of that barn or shed or garage that's being engulfed in the backyard... they likely could only make sure the fire didn't spread to other structures, allowing this one to burn to the ground). Lastly, the rack standing in the back of the truck, loaded down with turnout coats, is pretty wild to me. We had a separate high panel truck that carried the coats, boots, helmets, and gloves for the fire crew, they being all volunteers who would show up at a fire, individually. I've seen a number of fire departments in my training and never once did I see turnout gear handled in this manner. I do like how the truck and flames are not only colorized, but are similar in hue, tying them together even more. Terry, incorporated in 1910, is a town in and the county seat of Prairie County, Montana, in the U.S. The population was 605 at the 2010 census so the limited resources of this fire department at the end of the 1930's, makes perfect sense.
