There were a view things that played into taking it out of 1st line. When it was Truck 1 it saw lots of 1st in fires and it takes a little longer to set up than a normal truck. Also the wear and tear of running all the other typical calls it ran. Then add only certain people could operate it.
One of the reasons they purchased this was because of the light rail and it could operate easier around the over head wires on Howard St. Hence why it didn't go bye bye when the aerial towers went.
So now its Reserve Truck 51. Like said before it goes on multiple alarms and is dispatched as Water Tower 1. It also gets used to often remove patients from upper floors and roof tops if needed.
