Spare Ladder

[Guest]

I remember being at a multiple alarm fire during the winter in Erie, PA a few years ago. They called in off-duty guys to man the spare Ladder which happened to be an old ALF TDA with NO canopy ofer the tillermans seat. It was a typical winter day in Erie, too. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

That must have been several years ago. That old TDA was sold to Westfield, NY after being in an MVA. The entire aerial (turntable, hydraulics and all) were remounted onto Westfield's ALF service aerial. I photographed the finished product at least three years ago and that was a year or so after it had been rebuilt.



There have been some changes to the Erie FD. Engines 6 and 12 have swapped quarters and the crew of Engine 12 cross-mans Tower 1 out of the South Central station. This prevented the closing of the house on the northwest corner of the city. Engines 6 (SW) and 8 (NE) are rescue pumpers. Tower 2 is now the only fully-staffed truck company in town.

The front half of (Old) Squad 35 is former Engine 290 of Brooklyn New York and served the F.D.N.Y. from 1978 until disposal in 1990. While in the service of the FDNY, Engine 290 was titled as the "Busiest Engine Company In The World" in 1979, 1981,1982 and 1984. The back half of Squad 35 served as Squad 42 from Enhaut Fire Company, from 1972 until 1995. The chassis of former Squad 42 was sold to a private party, with the box being refurbished and mounted to the Engine 290 cab in 1995. Interstate Truck Equipment in Hagerstown, Maryland did the work.
