Chicago fire apparatus parade held near the CFD Fire Academy on Aug. 19, 1997. All sorts of great looking rigs, plus some beautifully restored pieces. Even a little footage of the old Chicago Water Tower.
OMFG!!!!! you have … OMFG!!!!! you have a video of the old HME tower ladder 10!!!!! Only TL21 and TL39 have those if I’m not mistaken which I don’t think I am.
And oh yeah while … And oh yeah while other engine company’s have moved on to the newer Spartan Luvernes if you go to Chicago/Milwaukee engine 14 has the same engine they had 14 years ago.
I absolutly LOVE … I absolutly LOVE going to these every year. Never get to see the parade, but afterwards with the Water Tower is absolutly Great! Awesome Video as always!
