Albany Fire Department Ladder 1 - a photo on Flickriver

There are four Aerial Ladders in the City of Albany. Their primary function is the rescue of trapped occupants, forcing entry into a building, salvage work, and overhauling the fire scene. These firefighters use their ground ladders to ladder a building and their aerial to gain entry to upper floors. They carry thirty-five foot, twenty-eight foot, and sixteen foot ladders on their truck. Sometimes these units are referred to as “Truck” companies. SOURCE: www.albanyny.org
