This came in around 09:45 this morning. I followed the crews from their station. A one-story wood-frame garage, measuring 22x20 feet, had a small fire in the ceiling area. It was quickly knocked down using a single 1.75-inch line, followed by some fast overhaul work. The units on scene included RFOR E222, T221, ELPK E947, FOPK E402, OKPK T631, and C620, along with several chiefs from River Forest and Elmwood Park. Notably, River Forest’s T221 was previously Oak Park’s T631, and the 1981 Seagrave 100-foot ladder truck was modified to carry a few hundred feet of 4-inch hose, allowing it to forward lay a supply line to E222.The first image shows the garage before the line was charged and the structure was opened up.
