Nice tour of Chicago Dave! Great variety of stuff I'd love to have photographed but couldn't.
I'll be visiting your station for two days Monday and Tuesday. I'll be there probably around 8ish or a little after so maybe I'll run into you if you're around. Ouch, that could hurt.

Dave, that Milwaukee Haz-Mat looks like it could use a tiller. Must be a bear to navigate the older industrial areas of the city of which there are many.

The front bumper was in the street, the rear was still inside the door. I thought we were going to have to find a bigger space to shoot it, but the guys said that they had done it there before. Tight fit!

The City of Lebanon FD has two stations. The Center Township FD has one. As governmental entities, they are separate, but as fire departments, they are much closer. They use and house each other's apparatus, based on need and fit. All three stations stay crowded. Here are 11 of their rigs, posted in the order I shot them.
