House fire in West Dundee, 10-1-25

Oct 2

Posted by Admin in Apparatus on-scene, Fire Scene photos | 3 Comments

This from Michael Kavallierakis:

I was at Elgin Station 2 yesterday when tones went off for Quint 2 going out of town. Turns out they were going just a mile north for a worker in West Dundee. I headed to the scene and got a lot of pictures. New Engine 31 was first due and put in some work. Also photos of Tower 32. There was a dog that had CPR done and it was transported in Carpentersville Utility 93 which was being driven by a chief.

This from Danny Nelms:

Was in downtown Louisville today (7-7-25) and saw the ex Alsip rig in the quarters of Louisville Engine 5 and Tower Ladder 2. Was told by the on-duty crew that it was being stored at the firehouse until the truck they are going to use the main aerial for is back from a refurbishment about 6 months away.

Berwyn Fire Department news

Mar 31

Posted by Admin in Fire Department News, Fire Truck photos | 2 Comments

From Josh Boyajian:

Berwyn has sold Quint 9Q1 to Brindle Mountain Fire Apparatus. In lieu of running the quint, Berwyn is going to run an engine frontline out of the South House. They have renumbered the 2009 Spartan Crimson engine (x-903) to Engine 901. They have another Pierce Enforcer pumper on order that should be delivered by the end of the year. It should be identical to their latest engine from Pierce.
