Officials say the bell weighs a few hundred pounds, and they used a front-end loader just to move it to the other side of the building.
The Pleasantville Fire Department in Atlantic County, New Jersey is hoping to recover one of its oldest tools: the department's original bell, cast in 1903 by the Buckeye Bell Foundry."I would say the bell is irreplaceable. It's one of a kind. It's tied to our fire department," said Battalion Chief Eric Moran. "It was used to alert firefighters and local residents that a fire was happening or to come to the firehouse.
Action News spoke with Paul Ashe, director of the National Bell Festival Organization in Washington, D.C.He says this bell was likely made of bronze, which contains copper and tin. Moran says the fire department has been in touch with local scrap yards to tell them to be on the lookout.
