This from Jeff Braun, Jr.
The Lyons Fire Department was out in force on Fathers Day (6/19/16), as they were on standby at a local auto show. They brought out Engine Co. 1312, Medic 1314, and Division 10’s Mobile Ventilation Unit which was being used as a Cooling Station as the unit was set to DECON mode to help everyone cool off on this 95 degree day. Chief Nord’s vehicle, Car 1301, was also on hand with its hood open so that the public can see what the inside of a fire chief’s vehicle looks like. Thanks!

They probably use it. 🙂 You almost have to given that you have the sirens and air horns blasting and idiots still don’t see you or get out of the way.

They Q siren is just for looks. They use an electronic siren.

Nice sharp looking PIERCE.
Good to see the traditional Q.
I noticed some departments are replacing them with EAGLE sirens on existing rigs.
