Aug 4

Posted by Admin in Fire Department News, Fire Truck photos, New Delivery | 14 Comments

From the Franklin Park Fire Department on Facebook:

Chief Stewart and Battalion Chief Burmeister traveled to St. John, Indiana, to inspect the new Engine Co. 2 at the Fire Service, Inc. dealership. This engine is a mirror image of our recently purchased Engine Co. 1. Both engines were designed by Fouts Fire. We hope to have Engine Co. 2 in service by the end of August to help better protect the citizens of Franklin Park!
