I remember when Rescue911.de did a ride along on this truck when it was acting as Tower Ladder 14 back in 2012! Can’t believe this old girl’s still being used!
@@Tommymellett if you’re talking about the cab, I believe it’s open like that because back then it was deemed easier for geared up crew to climb out the rig
Awesome catch. FDNY back then ran very lovely rescue trucks with the same company that built that truck chassis. Anyways, I’m just curious to know, how often does Chicago Fire Department retire their ambulances, fire engines and trucks/aerial ladders/towers? Anyways again, keep up the good work there.
You think you have old trucks in your reserve fleet! HAH! We have 1983 Mack CF's and 1984 Seagrave Marions still runnin' here in Long Beach (and our newest is a 2015 KME Kovatch!)
Awesome catch! If I'm correct TL21 won't have there 1996 HME at all since they will receive a new rig soon. Because they been using that rig for awhile.
Not sure if they will be getting one of the 2 new E-One TL’s being built currently. It would make sense but with the way the city does things I won’t believe it till I see it.
True but I did suspected TL21 and TL5 as they are the oldest. Yes the city isn't wise into assigning new rigs. Did E11 get a new rig because it's never mentioned
@@alexandergrube6437 it’s too bad honestly. These old trucks may be starting to fall, but they still have some life left. If I ever get enough money and these old dinosaurs are still around, I’m thinking of buying one of them.
Great Catch Mate!👍
I think your outro is longer than the actual video

Nice catch with the spare. Noticed a lot of companies using spare rigs lately
Yeah sure seems like it. They have been in this spare since February I heard.
Great video man

Some pretty old rigs in Chicago.

No they still have an HME.
There are still four of the HME's in front line service
Engines not TL’s.
RIP E252. As of 2019 I think it was put up at an auction.
I wish it would go to another department or a collector but it was probably sold to a scrap yard
