​

Currently have 25 active members,32 non-active corporation members

​

Original firehouse was at 150 Plainfield Avenue. Moved to 36 Plainfield Ave after fire destroyed old firehouse in 1945.

​

We have the honor to have Honorary Chief William Quackenbush celebrating his 56th year of active service. Bill still responds to the firehouse when we have an emergency call; gets dressed into his gear and then takes his spot on the Engine. Congratulations and many more years to come!

​

In August 2003 we lost our brother James (Scotty) Devlin who succumbed to cancer. Scotty (Old DB) gave it his best. An active member for 30 years, coordinator of Fund Drive for Engine 2, and an all around great friend. He always wore his sweats, which gave us a laugh. He never gave up fighting to the end. He will be missed.

​

Engine 2 responds to approximately 800 alarms per year
