Sutphen Aerial Ladder Demo At FS 49

Sutphen sales rep John Lawver stopped by Fire Station 49 this morning with a demonstrator aerial ladder for crews to look over. The Sutphen SLR 75 is Sutphen’s first venture into the straight ladder market. PTDFRS currently has an apparatus committee in-place to look at all of the current aerial options with the hope of replacing the current Truck 49 in the next few years. At this point in time, no manufacturer or type of aerial apparatus has been decided upon and the committee is evaluating all possibilities.
