Members of the Center Line Volunteer Fire Department pose in front of their 1926 American LaFrance fire truck (1931 photo). In 2006, spear-headed by Councilman David Hanselman, the "Friends of the Fire Truck" acquired the 1926 American LaFrance fire truck that the newly-formed Village of Center Line purchased in March of 1926. On the evening of Jan. 18, 2007 they held an Open House for members of the community to view the eighty year-old fire truck, enjoy some refreshments and learn about their group's purchase and restoration plans. Here are some photos from the Open House. The community supported numerous fund-raisers and after eight years, the restoration was completed shortly before Mayor Hanselman passed away in Aug. 2015.
