Buffalo Grove Firefighters got quite the present on Tuesday! BGFD took delivery of our new Tower 25. Getting a piece of equipment this important is a several year process and involves an enormous amount of research, design, and travel by the Apparatus Committee. We want to thank Village President Sussman, the members of the Village Board, Village Manager Bragg, and Fire Chief Baker for their continued support. Be on the look out for Tower 25 on the streets of Buffalo Grove in the coming weeks!

Finally the Quint can go back to station 27 and they can now run as Quint 27 or Engine 27

Hopefully they don’t run it into the building like they did the Ferrara.

When I look at this truck, I see an extremely well thought out and spec’d truck! E-One is considered one of the elite builders in my opinion. The E-One tower ladder and torque box is supreme.
What is kept in the front bumper?
Do the E-One barrier doors clear the barriers on 53?
What monitor is being used on the bucket?
I think the only thing I would’ve done different if I had any say is put the Opticom on the bucket.
Fantastic job spacing the rig!
