Engine 4 was founded on May 2, 1924 in response to the growing need for fire protection in the West End of the village. The company operated out of an old wagon shed, using Engine 1's old Selden until a building was constructed and they received their own new American LaFrance. When that firehouse started to get cramped with the addition of Truck 2, the village built the current firehouse in 1966. They run unit 344, a 1996 Spartan/RD Murray 1500 GPM pumper. Engine 4 responds from the Clearstream Ave. firehouse and is first due in the northwest part of town.
