What is the ground ladder compliment for Topeka's Truck 3?



I understand the city service truck concept. Indianapolis F.D. used city service trucks, and Louisville F.D. used quads. But both Indy and Lou-a-vul ran apparatus that had a full compliment of ground ladders.



I'm assuming that Topeka's service trucks run mostly residential areas that would not require the longer ground ladders. I would even take into consideration that the 24' ladder could be used of off the engine company. But that back compartment looks a little short on room for ground ladders. Do you have a pic of the rear ladder compartment open? It must work well for Topeka since 4 out of 6 trucks are set up that way. Thank You in advance.
