Bill Friedrich submitted an image of the engine being used by the Elk Grove Township Fire Department that was formerly owned by the Galesburg Fire Department.
I shot the loaner engine Elk Grove Township is using while their Spartan/Alexis engine is having the tank repaired. The loaner is X-Galesburg FD Engine 52. I have included a shot of the rig while at Galesburg as well.

The engine served the Galesburg Fire Department as Engine 52. It was built in 2003 on a Spartan Diamond chassis by Alexis with a 1,500-GPM pump and 600 gallons of water. Bill Friedrich photo

Engine 11 2006 Spartan/Alexis is out of service due to repairs. Engine 319 1992 International/Darley is now front line until Engine 11 returns back to service. The former Galesburg Engine 52 is the loaner engine running as Engine 2-11.

The Freightliner is a 2009 Freightliner/Midwest Fire 2000 gallon/500gpm tanker. It is still in service.
