The cab was purchased new in 1988, and the trailer is the old trailer from Ladder 2's 100' Maxim, that was sent out for refurbishment when ithe cab was bought. It ran as Ladder 3 out of Highland ave until the current piece, the Pierce Rear Mount was purchased in 95 or 96. I remember when the rig was bought, and one of the firefighter's giving me the grand tour. They were so excited that the tillrt position was now enclosed!
Ladder 3 originally ran out of teele square, but was reassigned to highland ave in the late 80's, and was there for about 10 yrs, but went back to teele sq in 98 when yhe Union Square station flooded, forcing them to reassign Tower One back to Station 4.
