Found at Hinckley Fire Protection District on Facebook:

IT’S A GIRL AND SHE’S BEAUTIFUL!

Weighing in at 42,180 lbs and 377”, the new Engine Company 1805, a 2024 HME/Ahrens Fox pumper, was delivered to the Hinckley Community Fire Protection District at the end of November but we waited until she was “dressed” by Strypes to introduce her.

Your Hinckley firefighters will be spending a lot of time training and outfitting her with equipment, so it will be at least 8 weeks before she’s ready to serve at which time more information will be posted about a “push-in” ceremony that the public will be invited to.

This from Tyler Tobolt:

Engine 1805 seems to be an old Darien-Woodridge Engine (if anyone could confirm).

Also it was very cool to see their Snorkel operating still to this day.
