This is more than likely Ladder 18 using a spare (200 series) ladder. A rearmount ladder has never been assigned to them. During this timeframe they were assigned a 1968 Seagrave tiller, a 1971 Pierce snorkel, and a 1982 Mack aerialscope. Also, the early 1970's vintage ALF rearmount(s) were not unique. As Steve Skaar stated in his post, there were two 1971 models, originally assigned to Ladders 3 and 20, and three 1972 models, originally assigned to Ladders 17, 21, and 31.
