Oak Park is on-track to receive their two new HME Ahrens Fox engines in mid-October. Both engines are on HME 1871 chassis with 3,000-watt Command Lights nested on the roof of the cabs. (a big aide for fire photographers at night-time scenes) Each will have a 1,500-GPM pump, 500 gallons of water, 20 gallons of Class A and 30 gallons of Class B foam. Oak Park Battalion Chief Ron Kobyleski supplied the in-progress photos.
