New engines for Chicago (more)

From Danny Nelms:

Engine 97’s new rig appears to be the first to arrive in the city. Interesting addition of a door for outside access to the cabinet inside the rear of the cab.

Working fire in Chicago, 1-6-17

This from Eric Haak:

Shortly before 0700 hrs on Friday morning (1/6), Chicago’s 24th Battalion had a working fire in a 2-story frame home on the 13400 block of South Carondolet Ave. The fire appeared to be blowing out of the 1st floor rear windows and a door on the “D” side. This side had very limited access and was separated from a commercial building by only a couple feet. The hydrant directly in front of the home was not working (unknown if frozen or not) and Engine 97 secured water by using a hydrant further down the block on 134th Street. Engine 104 was in a spare. All of the occupants, including the family dog, made it out of the home safely.
