Summit Fire Department participating in a parade. Summit Illinois USA., a photo by Eddie from Chicago on Flickr.

This photograph was sent to Me recently by a gentleman named Terry Ritter, who is a big fan of Eddie's Railfan Page.

Terry who is originally from southwest suburban Summit Illinois, sent Me this photograph of several fire trucks appearing in a local parade through downtown Summit Illinois along South Archer Road / Illinois Rt # 171.

Although He was not able to give a specific year that this photograph was taken, I am willing to say that this was proboubly taken during the late 1980's or 1990's era.

Fire engines, are always a popular vehicle featured in many local Chicago area parades.

Thanks Terry.
