This from Mike Summa for #TBT:

For TBT-Orland FPD’s Engines 7&8, 1999 Pierce Saber 1500/750. Photo taken at Orland Maintenance Bldg. I believe these two are dedicated spares, correct me if I am wrong. These two are probably gone since last week I spotted an Engine 8 in town which was a 2009 Spartan/Darley. Enjoy and comment.

This from Daniel Hynd:

I took in the 2-11 in Blue Island at 13039 Western Ave on 9-7-23. I arrived well after the fire was knocked, but got some pretty good apparatus photos.

This from Michael Maida:

There have been several postings on the website recently regarding the Peoria FD. I had an opportunity to go to there recently and was able to see some of what has been talked about. I stopped by Peoria Fire stations 3, 11, and 15. Station 3 is home to Engine 3 and Truck 3. Station 11 is home to Engine 11 and Rescue 1. Engine 11 and Rescue 1 are jump companies as are Engine 3 and Truck 3. They have a mixed fleet of KME, Pierce, and E-One. Engine 11 is back in service in that neighborhood after 20 years.

From a reader:

I came across this old photo of Naperville E2 that I took back in the 1980’s. It was a Kodachrome slide. Amazingly, the image quality has held up well. I scanned it to share. I have a photo of the current E2 also.

Old E2- 1975 Mack MB/Emergency One

This from Colton Latham:

Engine 10S (former engine 10) – 1998 Pierce Lance ?/1500/20 … as I was told by the firefighters on shift. Still going strong with 136,986 miles and hopefully an even longer future protecting the people of O’Hare International Airport!

(Photographed at Rescue Station 3 at a reserve for Engine 9) I am still a little puzzled why 9S wasn’t there instead, but overall I’m just happy to have gotten some good shots. Thank you so much to the crew at Rescue 3!
