Greenville’s good old engine has finally answered it’s last alarm. For almost 40 years, Engine 2 served the citizens of Greenville. It was built by Mack Trucks and delivered in 1972. Soon after Mack stopped building fire trucks. Many departments relied on this tough bunch of trucks including FDNY. Columbus had a number of tiller type ladder trucks built by Thibault and powered by Mack tractors. It’s a shame that such an American Company as Mack stopped building fire apparatus. We were lucky in this area because of Harvey Hole Mack in Versailles being a local dealer and supporting us. I’ll assemble some shots of Engine 2 and post them next.
