LINCOLNVILLE Lincolnville Fire Chief Don Fullington III had good news and bad news for the Select Board this week: Engine 5, which is stationed at Lincolnville Beach, has cracks in its frame and has been suddenly pulled from service.
The good news is that the town’s latest addition to the fleet arrives soon. The brand new E-1, built in New York state, will be Engine 4. A combined utility and attack truck, it will be named in honor of Neal Peabody, a longtime Lincolnville firefighter, who was instrumental in establishing the area’s former EMS service, Camden First Aid, and outfitting that service with extrication and access equipment.
