Engine donation helps educate future diesel techs at NJC

Scholl Oil and Transportation Company of Holyoke believes in investing in the future of diesel technology, as it changes so quickly. Arlan Scholl and Garrett Sporhase were both on board with a suggestion from Floyd Trucking Service to donate the 2009 Mercedes MBE4000 complete engine to the Northeastern Junior College diesel technology program last fall.

Jimmy Atencio, NJC diesel instructor, was very grateful for the donation, as it gives the students the chance to work on the latest technology.
