I think 24 and 23 were built at the same time

Well, it would make sense that the oldest of the reserve engines will be replaced with this new Ferrara rig. If the current Engine 21 is oldest of the front-line rigs, then the new rig will wind up at 21. How old is Engine 24?

when I was at Hoffman est a few years ago they told me 21 was a 2004 quantum but even if that is true that would make it 14 years old sometimes towns go by miles and hours not years I don’t know what Hoffman est does

23 is the newest of the remaining Quantums. I’m pretty sure engine 21 is a 1997, it was refurbed last year.

either 21 23 or one of the spares

Yes Hoffman Estates is using the tower, If they are replacing an engine, my guess it would be Engine 21.

Are they using the tower? Looks like another department phasing out pierce.
