Mayor Robert Blais had written a letter to Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty last month, asking if the town would be interested in paying one-third of the cost toward a new truck. Fire officials are looking to replace an existing 24-year-old firetruck with a new vehicle, possibly a Sutphen model, at an estimated cost of $900,000 to $1 million.

Blais had proposed an arrangement in which the truck would be stationed in Lake George for six months during the busy tourist season — from about May to October — and in Warrensburg for the rest of the year.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – A News 2 viewer sent us this photo of an overturned fire engine in Antioch Friday night.

The photo was taken at Meadowood Village Apartments, which is located at the intersection of Rice Road and Rural Hill Road.

You can see in the photo that the engine landed nearly upside-down along the roadside.

At the station there now hangs an original ladder from a horse-drawn hook-and-ladder fire truck the department bought in 1901, along with a copy of the contract to purchase the truck from Seagrave Co. of Columbus, Ohio, and a photo of the truck. The department also has the original contract for the truck kept safely in the chief's office.

The ladder had been at Manly Steel since the early 1940s.
