A historic moment for Charlotte Fire Today, Engine 30 was officially placed into service during a traditional push-in ceremony. The time-honored ritual dates back to the days of horse-drawn fire equipment, when firefighters had to manually push their rigs back into the bay after a call. That spirit of pride and ceremony is alive and well in Charlotte. What makes today especially meaningful is the engine itself. Engine 30 is Charlotte Fire’s first electric-powered fire engine.

PUSH-IN CEREMONY FOR ENGINE 22. During a push-in ceremony, Firehouse 22 celebrated the Charlotte Fire’s newest firetruck, Engine 22. The push-in ceremony is a long-held tradition of the fire service.

Over time, with the invention and adoption of motorized apparatus, the need to manually move the
