From some history information I have regarding Roanoke, they purchased a 1949 Ward LaFrance with a 750 gpm pump. A note in that history says that this was an ex- ladder truck. The possible Ward LaFrance serial number is 502451.
This one sounds interesting. Any other information would be appreciated.

the Ward list I have has this :
2451 Roanoke R F D VA 82T DS F&R Qtrs/ PS F&R Qtrs/ PP/ Closed Cab
doesnt seem like it was an aerial, but who knows. also, the ward serials of that era break down 50 is the year completed 2451 is the production number.
