New Champaign County Fire Unit Numbering

[thomasyu]

Also posted in the MDICE thread but here it is again.
It seems the new fire unit numbering has gone into effect. So far:
1xx is Champaign
2xx is Urbana
60xx is Eastern Prairie
82xx is Arrow Ambulance (their ambulances are numbered 827x, heard 8276 and 8275)
89xx is Pro Ambulance (their ambulances are numbered 898x, heard 8986)
Engines are 5x
Ladders are 6x
Car 10 is now 110 and Car 20 is now 220
Can anyone fill in more info?

Great, now that I'm used to hearing our neighborhood Engine 13 I'll have to perk up when I hear Engine 153?? Doesn't quite have the same ring to it. Thanks for the info.

Other unit id's heard:
Eastern Prairie units are 60xx series

I believe these are correct but not completely verified:
Stanton units are 11xx series
Rantoul units are 23xx series
Ogden units are 13xx series
Tolono units are 24xx series
Seymour units are 33xx series
