Marietta 1949 Pirsch ladder

Timing is everything. When I visited MFES Sta. #1, I had no idea that they were going to pull this fine piece of machinery out that day. Just dumb luck put me in place to get shots of this wonderful antique and others.
This truck was originally designated as Ladder #1. It was one of the longest reaching ladders in North Georgia. Ladder #1 was placed in service in 1949 and remained on active duty until 1984. It was last used on the United Plastics fire on November 1, 1981.
