This from Andy Russell:
Peotone Squad 14 was hit while working an accident scene Saturday night on I-57. The squad sustained some significant damage to the officer’s side rear corner and will be out of service for several weeks while repairs are made. This is a great reminder for all to slow down and move out of the way of emergency and maintenance vehicles on the roadways and also for firefighters to protect their scenes.

Peotone buys Snorkel
Oct 30
Bill Friedrich provided the following information about the Peotone Fire Protection District
Fire Chief Bill Schreiber is pleased to announce the arrival of his newest vehicle in the fleet. They purchased this vehicle from the Normal FD in McLean County. Bill expects this vehicle to go in service some time during November. He also reports this vehicle is not replacing anything.
Peotone purchased this 1979 Seagrave P-Series 50' Snorkel from the Normal Fire Department in central Illinois. It has a 1,250-GPM pump and carries 500 gallons of water. The cab enclosure and other bodywork was done by RPI in Tipton, IN. Bill Friedrich photo
Prior to the refurb and cab enclosure, this is how the Snorkel looked originally. Bill Friedrich photo
Chief Schreiber sent a few images of the unit when it arrived and Peotone personnel tried it out.
