This ladder is house alone at Mase Hook and Ladder which also serves as headquarters for our department. It has a 100 foot ladder and an on board generator. This rig goes to almost every medical call(and fires oviously) when there is only one career officer at one of the engine stations.

This is the front view of the ladders station. The ladder exits from the rear of this building

the ladder had about 5 inches from the highest point to the ceiling of the bay

If someone brought a vehicle like these in a European city it would not be able to move around easily
