The Stamford Fire Department (prior to the name change to SFRD) had a 1966 Maxim 100' tiller that ran as Truck #1. In 1983 it was refurbed with a Mack R tractor (it only sat 3 but at that time there was only a tillerman and driver on the rig). In the late 80's the staffing was increased to 4 (driver, officer, tillerman, and firefighter) so a jumpseat enclosure was added behind the tractor. The rig was replaced in 1995 by a 100' Sutphen tower ladder quint.

SFRD49

Be Safe!

Yep dadbo, we called them Truck 1, Truck 2 and Truck 3. Of course I'm partial to Truck 2. Everyone here except the few from FDMV will only know the county numbers.
