[@MidwestFlesh]

Didnt say on it..I dont think but I'll check my pics from that day

[@takeitliketexas]

Its the City of Chicago Fire department if you Google chicago fire department E - to 51 you can see pictures of what it looked like when it was in service... Also where exactly is this located if anyone knows because I head up a group of individuals who catalog the whereabouts of vehicles owned by the Chicago Fire department both presently and in the past

[@takeitliketexas]

Google E-251

[@jeniwatkins3297]

Love to know why the older ladder truck is abandoned. That's not a normal thing to just dump. They are super expensive and people actually collect them

[@takeitliketexas]

It was purchased the brand new in 1985 by the City of Chicago and they just sold it within the last 2 or 3 years at auction there was nothing much to save on it after the city salvage what parts they could

[@SueGirling68]

Hi, that old fire truck is called a Simon Snorkel fire engine if I'm correct. A sweet explore, you scared me going up that high, I thought that highest step had given way. Thanks for sharing. x

[@RefrigeratedWaffles2]

That’s a 1985 E-One hurricane tower ladder, built for chicago.

[@JuddKramer]

I'm surprised metal scrappers haven't torn that place down to the foundation.

[@randomweeb6373]

Do you ever get scared going in these abandoned places?

[@lordexplores]

da memegod There's always a risk but I'm not usually afraid. Unless it's a neighborhood with high crime rate then I have to be on higher guard.

[@randomweeb6373]

Wow . . . I am 16 and I am still scared going in my grandmas house

[@polishchicken1221]

The fire truck (tower ladder) in the video is a CHICAGO FIRE DEPARTMENT apparatus. It is labeled E251. This is a number given to reserve apparatus in the fire department’s fleet...E and then the number. Each type of vehicle has it’s own letter. At one time this vehicle was front line. I believe it was manufactured by EONE, which is still in business, and is from the late 80’s early 90’s. The years are a guess. It’s a shame to see it mutilated like that. In it’s day I am sure it helped out a lot of people that called 911 in Chicago.

[@takeitliketexas]

It's a 1985 model and the number E - to 51 is not a number assigned a to reserve apparatus is a number that is assigned at the time the vehicle is purchased and that number sticks with the truck from when its 1st delivered a brand new all the way until they get rid of it

[@polishchicken1221]

Sorry I was not more clear with my response. Yes, ^ you^ are correct with the number being given to the vehicle when it arrives at the department and its history. Yet, when it goes to a reserve and or retired status, it is then labeled and called by that number. That was the direction I was coming from.fire.fandom.com/wiki/Chicago_Fire_Department (E251) 1985 E-One Hurricane / Federal aerial (-/-/95' rear-mount platform) (ex-Tower Ladder 23)
