I know Ladder 28, which is the same age, went OOS the other day due to overheating & the Shops put 4 Gallons of antifreeze in our radiator on Thursday. Hopefully the rumor about the 5 new trucks for next year winds up being fact. Also I spoke to a Captain downtown who informed me that the city has applied for a grant to ppurchase two new TDA's for Ladders 1 & 24. We will be getting them ONLY if the grant money comes through.
