The Mack ladder was seen in the 1995 kid’s video All About Big Red Fire Engines, which I would assume was filmed in late 1994 and released on VHS in early to mid 1995.

It got a 1994 Seagrave.
The tower ladder that replaced the 1984 Mack was one that was labeled as a FWD/Saulsbury and L7 received on January 15th 1996 classified as a 1995 ST 9501

I covered as the Captain of Tower Ladder 7 in 1991 for about 6 months. The rig then was the above mentioned 1984 Mack. I all I spent over 20 years working in FDNY Tower Ladders and I assure the members of TL-7 were top shelf. At that time TL-7 was in the process of being trained as a Rescue Support Ladder Company, why they ended the Rescue Support Ladder program is beyond me.
