impressive the work that Chicago still gets out of some damn old apparatus. looked like a very long and cold night.. grt photos

Great pictures and i have to agree about seeing some of the older rigs.

[Bryce]

Great shots as usual.


The fact that Chicago is using 30 year old reserve rigs is: (1) a travesty; (2) a testament to the people working in their shops; (3) a testament to the people that built rigs tough enough to somehow still be running after 30 years of the toughest fire duty imaginable.
