Where are they now … Calumet Park

This message comes from Dennis McGuire, Jr.:

The former tower ladder from Calumet Park Fire Department is set to be put into service with the Story County Fire Department, located northeast of Carson City, Nevada. I remember hearing earlier that it might have been purchased by an oil company, so I'm not exactly sure how this development connects. However, it's currently being repainted in blue with a white stripe to match the department’s official colors, and the work is being done by Fire Trucks Unlimited.
Here is a link where you can follow the progress of the restoration. You can also check out a few photos from the ongoing work.
Thanks to Garry Kadzielawski for sharing this information with me.
