This from Daniel Hynd:
On December 12th, 2023 at around 2pm, the Roselle Fire Dept responded to a house fire on Long Ave in unincorporated Schaumburg.
Crews were met with a fully involved, single family home on arrival. Due to limited water supply, tenders from Roselle, West Chicago, Bloomingdale, and Pingree Grove supplied Engine 64 until a hydrant was secured.

This from Mike Summa for #TBT:
For TBT-Orland FPD’s Engines 7&8, 1999 Pierce Saber 1500/750. Photo taken at Orland Maintenance Bldg. I believe these two are dedicated spares, correct me if I am wrong. These two are probably gone since last week I spotted an Engine 8 in town which was a 2009 Spartan/Darley. Enjoy and comment.Mike Summa

I took in the 2-11 in Blue Island at 13039 Western Ave on 9-7-23. I arrived well after the fire was knocked, but got some pretty good apparatus photos.

This from Michael Maida:
There have been several postings on the website recently regarding the Peoria FD. I had an opportunity to go to there recently and was able to see some of what has been talked about. I stopped by Peoria Fire stations 3, 11, and 15. Station 3 is home to Engine 3 and Truck 3. Station 11 is home to Engine 11 and Rescue 1. Engine 11 and Rescue 1 are jump companies as are Engine 3 and Truck 3. They have a mixed fleet of KME, Pierce, and E-One. Engine 11 is back in service in that neighborhood after 20 years.Mike Maida

From a reader:
I came across this old photo of Naperville E2 that I took back in the 1980’s. It was a Kodachrome slide. Amazingly, the image quality has held up well. I scanned it to share. I have a photo of the current E2 also.Old E2- 1975 Mack MB/Emergency OneCurrent E2- 2010 Spartan/Crimson (Ex-Naperville E4)
