Every regular train carried from five to ten extra oars and the weight of these shoved many of the engines far past stations. As a result verv few trains arrived here on schedule time. Each out-of-town company was met at the station by one of the local fire companies with a band and escorted to the flrehoußes. where luncheon was served. Many times the number of uniformed men on the station plaza ran Into the hundreds, making it prac tically impassable for Incoming vis itors. "Eats" for Everybody Temporary tables placed in the fire houses groaned under the weight of sandwiches and other lunch, supplied, in the majority of instances, by the ladies' auxiliaries. As a result the fire men and members of the band en tered tho parade well fed. Two complete special trainloads of firemen and visitors came from Phila delphia over the Pennsy and a third over the Reading. Other towns ing delegations by special trains were: CoateHVillc, one; Reading, three; AU lentown, two; one from Huntingdon and other western points; two on the Northern Central from Williamsport and Sunbury.

Hundreds of Steelton men were held up between the hours of 3 and 5 because of the passing of the great parade over the principal streets at this time.
