  This is replacing the 2011 tandem axel at Station 151 in LaGrange Highlands.

  I believe it’s the second one there. St. 3 has one if I’m not mistaken. this will replace the tandem axle 105″ at St. 1. St 2 still has a pumper covering all that area in Burr ridge and county. Maybe the 105′ will be a spare.

  I doubt that thing will last 10 years. With a pump and tank on a single axle. There is no way that’s a heavy duty ladder then.
