After a year’s worth of repair and refurbishment by automotive students at Surry Community College, Dobson Fire Department’s 1958 fire truck left the Dobson campus one recent morning on a journey to its new home — Tractor Brown’s Museum and Event Center in Yadkinville. The day was significant for those involved as it honored the work of Nolan Brown in preserving and sharing with others pieces of history at his museum, and solidified the desire of Will Neal Reynolds II, who had hoped to provide a permanent home for the retired fire truck before he died in 2009.
