Was this rig in service when they were front to back in the Knickerbocker firehouse? It seems longer and I wonder if they'd fit front to back.

This rig was replaced with a 1972 Mack which was in service when Ladder 112 moved in but they did piggyback with Ladder 732 for 9 hours each day with the 1969 Mack.

^^^^^^^^^^ Chief Jack....in 1968, Fireman Bob ( Cuckoo) Canberg (L120) placed the "HORNS" atop the rig for the first time. Hence the name "SUPER TRUCK". From the years 1968-1974 , L120 responded to over 50,000 alarms. Though,the set of horns have been replaceed many times. The horns adorement still ride high and proud! THE TRADION CONTINUES ,,,
