    So you're saying it went back into commission and then pulled again for the serious repairs that should have been done, but weren't?

    the truck was left in service , with only the ladder being out of service unitl the parts came in to fix the aerial device. The truck was still being used to bring tools, such as ground ladders and saws to the scene.

    Very Cool Answer, thank you for sharing it. Well, at least we're up to date. Some of the "inside sources" should get their facts straight.

    But if its in service it is in service as a ladder truck correct? Not a tool toter. so when next due calls for ladder it would be considered in service correct? Easy now i have allready talked to central on this.

    The engines carry a 10' attic ladder, a 14' roof ladder & a 28' extension ladder. A ladder truck carries in excess of 200' of assorted ground ladders.

    Do you see a differance here yet?

    I was wrong. Looked at the FITHP website and saw that 2 Truck was used. My apologies.

    Engines carry 24' extension ladders! Check your facts before you post something.

    What ladder truck was at the accident last night between Walmart and Wawa on North 13 around 6:00 pm?

    I thought of you Joe when I saw this accident and wondered if you were on scene. Wish I had my camera to take a picture of it for you. There was one engine, ladder truck, ambulance and an SFD Excursion.

    By the way I'm not from Salisbury. I'm from the Berlin/Ocean City area. So I have no bias against the SFD.

    200 feet? What is the tallest building in Salisbury? 70 foot?

    Anon 8:49AM, please read ALL of the words. It said 200' of ASSORTED ladders. That means ladders of various lengths which totals more than 200'.
