I'm not sure the date(s) when they became special apparatus "High Ladder" trucks but I remember reading somewhere that High Ladder 1 was quartered with Engine 21 and Ladder 13 & 24 both received 1963 Seagrave tillers (L24 got a new one and L13 got L48's).
According to the F.A.J. Mack C book: the two Mack C/Magirus 146ft. rearmounts were Shop #455 & #456. #455 was first assigned to Ladder 13 then became High Ladder #1 and was rebuilt in 1969 with a Grove 100ft. heavy duty aerial and assigned to T.C.U.731 then L171. ...
That 1952 Ward LaFrance Quad was Reg.#2613, originally assigned to E96 then went to E310 where E96 got 310's 1951 Ward. Later on was reassigned to E323 and E310 got E323's 1953 WLF. ;)
10-75 was for 201 Chestnut Ave. with fire in a 2story p/d w/people trapped on 2nd fl. Original fire bldg. fully involved and fire has extended to exp. #4 and #2
