Frouko,

I am not sure if that one will happen, it would be a one off, they are not due to get one of the E-ones for a while. We can hope.

I think we could see more classic and vintage Chicago stuff down the road, lots of options.

Joe

Oh this is exciting. I think I'll have to get this one!

Thanks for sharing

Joe, O'Hare did have the same 1969 Seagrave in Red/Black. On the door lettering in gold Chicago O'Hare International Airport and H&L co. No. 63" and on the body a white 3.

My bad I thought you were thinking the Tower Ladder's, yes that would be a good choice some minor differences with bumper/bell and pin stripes.The 1968 Rear Mount was in service from 2/1969 until they got the E-one tower 10/1988. I am sure the 3 had to do with early OHare numbering, truck 63 was not staffed until April of 69.
