Field Division South is also located there.
On the site, Truck 51’s photo of their new truck is their previous truck. Shop# E-336 was initially given to Truck 51, but it went back to Crimson and when it returned it was given to Truck 62 (which is correct on the site).Here is a photo of the current Truck 51 which is now using Shop# E-341. It is a 2010 Spartan/Crimson 103′ RM

This from Josh Boyajian:
Companies had a fire Thursday afternoon in the 5800 block of Michigan. Engine 84 arrived and had fire showing from the 3rd floor. They deck gunned it and lead out a line. Truck 51 and 30 had their mains to the roof. I arrived well after the fire was knocked. Here are some shots.

This from Eric Haak:
Here are some shots from yesterday’s working fire on the 5600 block of South Princeton. I got there as the aerial was being raised and, although the 17th battalion reported that he had a fire, I did not see any signs of one when I was walking up. Appeared to be a one room fire on the second floor and as I got to the front of the building, it was mostly out. They held the roof but I believe they did take out the sky light. One nice side note is that a small puppy was rescued by companies who made entry and returned it to a very grateful young girl. Engine 84 had a hydrant, Engine 47 had a line stretched but not charged, and Engine 50 responded as well. I believe one of these companies were returning from fuel at 65th & State which was the reason for the third engine.
