The Downer Grove Fire Department has been added to Division 16. Thanks to Bill Friedrich, all four stations (that’s 1,2,3 & 5 … there isn’t a #4 currently) are on the site with the exception of a few reserve rigs. Their fleet is ‘Chicago-style’ black over red and is predominantly made up of Pierce and Medtec units.

Engine 1 is the newest suppression piece in Downers Grove. It is a 2008 Pierce Impel 1500/500. Photo by Bill Friedrich
