        Because normally 2nd due TL51 was not available the Chief requested a tower ladder on the 2nd alarm. ???

  Guitarman or Anesti, I"m not sure which, put it well. "Its like you take a map of the Bronx and turn it upside down when talking about the busy areas now." Those North Bronx companies have certainly picked up with work.

I believe 51 truck couldn't get their rig started and so 61 was made the FAST truck.  With the amount of fire on arrival the chief automatically went with a 2nd alarm with a s/c TL just in case the operation went defensive.
