The diamond plate boxes on top...the left one contains small hand tools, on the right are shovels, rakes and brooms.
I noticed that the aerial ladder doesn't slope down toward the tiller cage like most Pierce TDA's. I wonder, since it sits so high, if it actually improves visibility for the tillerman. It looks like he would actually look under the tip of the ladder to see while driving.
Any thoughts, is that the reason?
Thanks Johnny

Here's a shot of Ladder 4's trailer. I was told that the visability is worse now. The ladder was made level because the left most diamond stud box had to be moved toward the rear since it couldn't be centered over the new cabinet where it once was. The removable ladder tip was shortened by thirteen inches bringing the bulk of the tip closer to the tillerman. They did manager to keep the over all length of the truck below sixty feet by just one inch and improve the appearance too.

Does that mean there's no spare Rescue?

The current spare rescue is designated Rescue 80 and is seen here parked behind quarters at station 14. The 2006 Pierce rescue may only be assigned as
UNIT
99, cross staffed with Engine 36, temporarily pending a decision on whether to purchase a new rig or not. If the purchase goes through then the 2006 Pierce rescue will become the new Rescue 80.

Sorry but I wasn't able to locate the "Charlie Brown" quote on this thread so I'm not too sure what the relevance was.
