On Saturday, June 21, The
Doylestown Fire Company was dispatched for wires in
the vicinity of 3765 Old Easton Road in the area of
the Candle Wic and Bio Tech Center in Buckingham
Township. Chief 19 Denny Loux Jr was first on scene
and reported a transformer fire next to the building
with extension. The box card was filled out and it
brought in additional apparatus from Midway,
Warrington, Plumsteadville, and Warwick. Engine 19
lead off with a handline and knocked back the fire
and Ladder 79 went to the roof to check for
extension. Crews then went in service with positive
pressure fans to clear the large building of smoke.
Photos were taken by Sara Grogan and Sean Duffy.
