Ladder 25 is using ST16 (Spare Truck 16) for long-term and Ladder 26 has ST28. Tower Ladder 3 is running a straight stick spare and Ladder 21 has a spare as well. I believe 3 has ST9 and 21 has ST29, which is an open-cab.[/quote]
Are there any new rigs on the table, or are you hearing the famous line "Sorry, but due to our financial situation..." Waterbury (CT) had a similar tradgedy quite a few years ago resulting in 2 LODD's. Most of the fleet got "red-tagged" and they ended up borrowing rigs on a long term basis from New Haven and FDNY. They ended up purchasing a bunch of demos just to put a fleet on the road.
