Here are some great old color images from a 3-11 alarm in Chicago on July 24, 1966. The fire was at 2348 S. Federal and from other images I have of this fire, it appeared to be long, wooden store houses that were filled with used tires. The engine you see is Engine 104 and the other rig is lettered and numbered Squad 8.
