Quote:It reminds me of the waterways on the older ALF Waterchiefs, mounted to the side of the ladder and not underneath. I cannot recall many modern ones like this one, maybe it was done "custom" so the ladder could cradle lower to meet a height restriction. Just guessing.Yes. Claymont moved into a new station in the past 5 years or so...The old station doors were much lower, 10 ft I think. Claymont was exclusively an E\-One company (one of their past chiefs was a sales rep) until this purchase. I seem to recall that ALF was the only ladder they could get based on their specs to fit in the old station. This truck was also delivered in slime yellow and the ladder and their 1996 E\-One engine were both repainted all red in the past 5 years. Claymont currently has a Pierce engine and pumper rescue on order to replace an older E\-One engine and the KW rescue.
