Bill Friedrich submitted an image of the Plainfield engine that was struck at the accident site with the following note:
… here is a shot of the engine that was side swiped on I-55. Plainfield FPD Engine 1941 was hit by the pump panel causing moderate damage. The engine was blocking for the ambulance. Engine 1941 is back in service and will be repaired in-house by the department mechanic. The engine crew was very lucky no one was seriously injured.
Plainfield Engine 1941 is a 2008 Pierce Arrow XT 1500/1000 shown here shortly after it was delivered. Bill Friedrich photo
