[@ErinTemlpe]

Omg,real cool, when the brother walk by and when the other brother went to squad 7a, real love

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

Nice

[@QuebecBuff]

Chicago with a real Q?! Incredible!

[@Stargazzer811]

Probably the only rig in CFD that has one, and they don't get to use it often.

[@Harry-so5hx]

Twr 63 the 1996 had one very briefly and the old Alf twr 5 had one ​@@Stargazzer811

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

Definitely rare to see one though because the 96 tower was sold and the ALFs bucket is broken

[@joedurbin1916]

That old squad box was a good ride back in the day ksc7-11 2-1-3

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

What's the deal with Chicago's little Rosenbauer squad Towers? I have never sean that anywhere else

[@troyhall4039]

Because snorkel which was brought by American lafrance went out of business and Rosenbauer won the bidding contract.

[@Tarantulautism]

Considered a quint?

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

@@TarantulautismNo because it doesn’t carry water or a pump

[@justanotheraviator2357]

​@troyhall4039 I really meant. Why does Chicago buy the dry bucket squad. (Snorkel)

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

@@justanotheraviator2357 Because as a two piece squad you can carry more equipment as a technical rescue truck(s) the snorkel has been a part of CFD for such a long time that it has become a staple because it’s so useful. If your asking why they ordered the truck dry because if it shows up on scene to a fire in most cases upwards of 3 engines are already on scene to feed the squad water as a master stream. Same reason they have dry Trucks, Arial Towers, and Towers

[@Dave911YT]

Awesome!

[@e60_buffer29]

Sweet Catch!

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

Thanks

[@jeremymanuel8041]

Love it great work

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

Thanks!

[@johnlebzelter4208]

The squad has a headlight out. Guess no pre-check was done on it.

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

When you need an airport rig one headlight might not stop them. I do agree that it may have been missed

[@ChrisGillmer]

Didn't know they had yellow trucks

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

Only for the ARFF airport stations

[@erichanson3721]

Why the lime green? Airport station?

[@GunBuddy08]

Yes, that’s why it’s says O’Hare on the truck doors.

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

Yes, it was for the ARFF support

[@johnlebzelter4208]

Why is this so rare?

[@Illinoisemergencymedia]

Squad 7 was in a spare that is rarely used.
