Man power has also remained the same

Tinley park still has all of their rigs. Yes engine 204 is the 2007 pierce dash. Right now I believe engine 202 is out of service for repairs the old engine 204 is now engine 211

Kevin or who ever is current with the Tinley Park Fire Department. Since Tower 204 exchanged places with Engine 203,did Engine 203’s 2007 Pierce replace the 2000 Pierce that had been Engine 204? If that’s the case did their 2000 Pierce become a second reserve rig or was the rig sold? I am going by the what’s on this website under the Tinley Park Fire Department.
Were there any recent reductions or manpower cut backs on the Tinley Park Fire Department or was Engine 204 an unmanned or a jump company when the tower ladder was at station 4?
