Early in its history firemen ran to fires and hand pulled apparatus. Starting 1884 horses and drivers (paid) were introduced and during the transformation to a paid department in 1890 all apparatus including the vehicles used to transport Chief Engineers were horse drawn. The term "GIG" originally referred to a light two-wheeled carriage pulled by one horse. However, the term has withstood time and continues to be applied to motorized vehicles used to transport Chiefs.
