1970 Hahn/Grove 100ft Tiller Rearshot.

This picture taken on 13th August,2011 shows the working end of a 1970 Hahn/Grove 100ft tillered aerial ladder and I thought I'd send this second picture in because its very seldom do we see the back end of such a vehicle.
This 1970 Hahn/Grove Tiller served the City of Bethesda in Maryland,USA but is now preserved in the UK and registered-FYY440H.
Sitting in the tillermans cab looking along those ladders to the tractor unit is really something else,but,it could'nt have been the most enjoyable ride during those cold winter Maryland winters.

It was cold, but you got used to it. The tillered truck that replaced it had an enclosed tiller cab.
"Tillering" the trailer was fun.
