No tailboard, I guess you have to use the ladder to get Hose?

No, this is a PUC which has a "hidden" rear step. Where the chevrons are located below the short roll up door is the rear step, hence the handle on it. Turn the handle, the "door" falls down and becomes the rear step to grab hose from the hosebed.

I like the Cedar Falls color scheme on the Sutphen tower, is the rescue a new scheme or just a demo? Hope it's not the former, it's boring.
