Any idea why this rig (a 1999 model) was pulled out of service and replaced with a spare?

Due to be replaced with either a 2009 or 2010 E\-One in the near future, along with Engine 21. Ladder 6 & Ladder 24 scheduled to receive new rearmounts. Ladder 24's piece was scheduled to go to Ladder 25, but under the terms of the Aid To Firefighters Grant we received, to purchase a TDA, once we got permission to use the money for a rearmount we still had to assign it to Ladder 24. Their current piece, a 1998 E\-One, will be reassigned to Ladder 25.
