4/23/21. NEW SEAGRAVE TOWER LADDERS

[skylerfire]

that's because of the scaffold and parked cars. busy block. they can hold the 95. 44 gets in there but they don't want it. they are surrounded by tillers, the streets are tight enough.

TL9 is surrounded by Tillers

TL23 for sure can’t hold a 95 footer… they can’t even make the turn out of the firehouse now without backing up

Its not only about being capable of making a turn out of quarters….the apparatus floor may not be able to support the additional weight of a 95’.

That's certainly true in some cases however as far as TL23 goes obviously weight isn't an issue because 44 states in quarters when relocating at that station.

21 Truck was delivered about 2 hours and they are putting it in service soon.

this is false. there will be adding 3 95 footers, but i can't say which companies, due to it not being public knowledge yet

The numbers were in the Bell Club newsletter. 21, 22, and 35

 

[Atlas]

nope

33 had one. Problems with their qtrs, problems and they were given a 75 ft. TL.

TL152 acting TL33 had to back up and they cut it pretty early but they had a sign across the street and the wall

TL 22 will not be getting the 95 its going to someone else

 

[scoobyd]

The companies that had "problems" with 95fters. 95ft relocaters don't seem to have those problems.

The might as well give the 95 footer to Ladder 163.

Ha when I was in L131 we just received a Tower Ladder and a couple of ‘Senior/old’ Chauffeurs had a hard time without the Tiller. Backing in was the worst part! Back than there was a 4 story tenement across the street with its side wall facing quarters. After hitting it a few times because we needed the whole street a few bricks were knocked out and til they knocked the building down that was the spot where you put the front Jack ‘into’ to back into quarters. Better than paint or a sign.

They have yellow poles across the street now I believe

Any idea who is getting it. 114 would be a good spot.
