[quote name='tascman' timestamp='1295128791' post='420602']Baltimore City, MD had this 1937 Mack E pumper. The slide has SLE27 written on it. What does that mean, Hon?[/quote]
SLE stood for "Second Line Engine". Basically a reserve apparatus that was fully equipped and ready to be placed in service. Many times on large incidents, off duty crews were called back to work and staffed these "second line" units. SLT was a Second Line Truck.
