The Midway Fire Department is proud of its new $232,000 engine, which was delivered in February.
The engine, shown rolled out into Bruen Street on Tuesday evening, has been on about five runs but no fires, firefighters said.
The engine replaced one that was 43 years old and joined a slightly smaller one that is 11 years old. It was built by Sutphen Fire Apparatus of Dublin, Ohio, which won the bid last year. The current city budget has $125,000 for down payments, and the city has financed the rest for five years at 1.98 percent interest.
