Just a quick questions about the 87/88 E\-One. What model were they? Protectors? Thanks

[Ladder 68]

Back then they were called the Cyclone cab. Now it is referred to as the Hurricane. Engine is in the back between the jumpseats.



Corrections welcome.

For now, they will keep the 1995 Pierce snorkel that was inherited from Ladder 5. With the dire financial situation of the city it is doubtful that new apparatus will be purchased in the near future.
