This morning in Mahanoy City began the rebuilding process for the Washington Hook and Ladder.

Approximately 10AM, a small crowd gathered with cameras in hand and remained silent as the shell of the fire truck was removed and then taken away.

Mahanoy Street was close while the work was being done.

The Hookies, as Mahanoy City refers to the department is still to receive a loaner truck from an anonymous fire department in Lackawanna County while they rebuild.
