City service ladder trucks were designed
to carry numerous ground ladders, but they were not equipped
with an aerial ladder. Once a proud member of the LA City
Fire Department, this straight frame city service ladder truck
was unique in that the rear drive wheels also could be steered
by a tillerman. When this antique was delivered to our museum,
it had no front axle or wheels. It is now on four wheels (with
newly refurbished wood-spoke front wheels) but full restoration
is not scheduled in the near future.
