Here are a few pictures of the new E-One for Naperville Engine 3. We are in Hamburg, NY for the final inspection. Final inspection of the new Pierce will be in early May. We will be re-assigning a couple engines and saying goodbye to the Freightliner/E-ONE engines that have been our reserve rigs for many years.

Box Alarm fire in Tinley Park, 4-8-18

This from Eric Haak:

Tinley Park had a Box Alarm at 7121 Laverne Lane at about noon on Sunday (4/8/2018). The first arriving company had a well-involved unit on the third floor of an apartment building. The fire was out before I could make my way down there so with no tactical images to be taken, I snapped a bunch of south suburban rigs to share.

This from Mike Lopina:

While on a mission to introduce my youngest son to the tastes of Manny’s Deli, we took a ride past the academy to see what was there. Not sure what’s going on with E116 having their front suction line off. Are they getting a new rig? E104 and E126 new rigs are in!
