(Nineveh, Morrisville, NY – Feb. 2016) Wagner Nineveh has donated a 1987 MackR-Model Picker Truck, with a 1984 Morbark 1000 mounted landing loader, to the Environmental Sciences Department of Morrisville State College. The truck and loader will primarily be utilized in class forestry activities at Morrisville.
Don Goodrich, Production Manager, along with Dennis Gates, Garage Manager and his team at Wagner Nineveh, have maintained and made improvements to this heavy-duty Mack truck. Wagner is partnering with the forestry, agricultural engineering and diesel technology programs at Morrisville State College to provide job opportunities within the community.
“It is great to be able to donate our Mack Truck to the students,” said Calvin Tallmadge, Mill Manager at Wagner Nineveh. “We look forward to seeing them again, being a part of our Wagner Team.”
“We greatly appreciate the donation from Wagner Nineveh,” said Brendan Kelly, Associate Professor of Forestry and Renewable Resources. “This is a welcomed upgrade from our current loader. The students will have more hands-on training due to this donation. At Morrisville we strive to ensure our students are immersed in experiential applied-learning environments. This piece of equipment will continue that tradition.”
“This truck will have applications in our diesel engines, powertrains and hydraulic systems laboratory activities,” said Chip Ax, Assistant Professor of Agricultural Engineering and Diesel Technology, who drove the truck back to the Morrisville campus from the Wagner facility.
