New engine for Berwyn

Aug 11

Posted by Admin in Fire Department History, Fire Department News, Fire Truck photos, New Delivery | 4 Comments

This from Josh Boyajian:

Wednesday I had the opportunity to shoot Berwyn’s new Pierce PUC that just entered into service. It is a short wheelbase, 2016 Pierce Enforcer PUC pumper with a 1,500-GPM pump and a 750-gallon water tank. Lots of thought and effort went into spec’ing this rig, with a lower hose bed and firefighter friendly compartments. Thanks to Lieutenant Tokarczyk and Crew! Enjoy

House fire in Berwyn, 7-15-16 (more)

Posted by Admin in Apparatus on-scene, Fire Scene photos | 5 Comments

This from Jeff Braun Jr. , COUNTY-WIDE FIRE PHOTOGRAPHY:

At approximately 1730 hours on Friday July 15th, 2016, the Berwyn Fire Department received numerous calls about a structure fire at 1236 Cuyler Ave. As the first units arrived on scene they reported they had a fully-involved structure fire. Quint 9Q1 was moved to the front of the building in order to utilize their master stream and extinguish the bulk of the fire on the delta side, and Truck Co. 904 was positioned just behind them in order to extinguish the fire on the alpha side of the building. North Riverside Engine Co. 808 was auto-aid to the fire, and was positioned on 13th Street. At around 1800 hours, Forest Park Engine Co. 402 was dispatched to the scene, backed down Cuyler Ave. and the members proceeded to bring their tools to the fire building. Thanks.
