- "The surprising speed with which a wreck of some of our leading American railroads is cleared up due to the fact that expert crews are drilled to respond to an alarm with as much vigor as may be seen in a metropolitan fire station. This view illustrated a most remarkable feat. At the opening, a locomotive attached to several flat cars carrying the wrecking apparatus is standing quietly in the yard. A messenger rushes up with a telegram announcing a wreck. Within 30 seconds a crew of about 50 men, including the engineer and fireman, have boarded the train, got it under headway and out of the field of the camera. Several belated employees running to catch the train give an amusing spirit comedy to the picture."

- "Another view of the entrance to Keith's Theatre, Boston, taken from a different point of view."
- "The fun in this view is spontaneous. The camera had been taking a picture of a crowd of boys snow-balling on one side of the side streets in Boston when a grocer's wagon drove into the scene. The boys thereupon turned their attention to the driver; and his efforts to escape the fusilade are very amusing."

The street is piled high with drifts, and the magnificent residences are scarcely discernible through their thick coverings of snow. A number of sleighing parties lend animation to the scene."

It shows the entire horseless fire department of Boston, accompanied by the old style apparatus which is run by horses running at terrific pace down Batterymarch Street, Boston, on its way to a fire. There are four horseless engines, and the black smoke rolls from the smokestakes in great volumes. Another view on this same film shows a portion of the Boston fire department making a quick hitch in the engine-house and running out with the horses on a gallop."
