I know Rolling Meadows old snorkel got shipped to Michigan but I don’t remember the city that got it.

Is that the rig from station 4? I think so. I have lots of fond memories of that engine. It came to my grade school. It woke me at night when my neighbors dog got sprayed by a skunk. (Neighbors thought it smelled like something burning). I used to chase it on my bike. Good memories.

A former Naperville E-One Hush ended up in Highland Park Michigan I have been told. It was a 1989 or 1990 pumper. Anyone know if it is still there?.
