Engine 74 is a 2014 Pierce Arrow XT. It is acting as Engine 72 for the time being, so Truck 72 could get repaired. When it goes to Station 4, a hard suction will be put on the front bumper of the engine to make it a drafting engine in rural tender ops.

Chicago Fire Department officials and family of Fire Capt. Herbert “Herbie” Johnson were among those who memorialized him on the anniversary of his death Saturday.
Johnson died after suffering severe burns fighting an extra-alarm fire at a home in the 2300 block of West 50th Place on Nov. 2, 2012.
Johnson’s wife, Susan Johnson, received a memorial bronze fire helmet from his colleagues at the firehouse where he was stationed, Engine 123, Tower Ladder 39, 2217 W. 51st Street, where Johnson’s brother, Firefighter Teddy Johnson, still works.
As part of the ceremony, which included a firebell ringing in Capt. Johnson’s honor, a memorial was unveiled that includes a bronze fire helmet, a photo of Johnson and a plaque commemorating Johnson in honor of his work in New York City following the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
thanks Dan
