South Line History — Serving You Since 1944
It began toward the end of 1944, when the Four – Town Volunteer Fire Company was formed by the men who represented the adjacent areas of Cheektowaga, West Seneca, Lancaster and Depew. A few years after Four Town Volunteer Fire Company was formed, a barn on French Road was destroyed by fire, due to the apparatus not arriving in a timely manner.
