Somerville got a new Seagrave tiller within the past year or so, but I haven't seen it (or any pics of it) yet.

Red Bank doesnt have the tiller anymore. Ocean Beach has a 75' ALF/LTI. Ocean Grove used to have a tiller, it was replaced by a Seagrave 2 years ago. Oaklyn still has the tiller.

That Ladder?

I know they recieved 2 E-one Rearmount ladders and 1 E-One engine in March of 2004....The E-one's were assigned to Ladder 1 and 2 and Engine 5.....So that tiller is gone....unknown if North Hudson Regional Fire Rescue bought it or not

Hoboken still has the tiller it is a spare and it is now known as ladder 4 and i think they still have the FDNY rear mount as ladder 3.

Truck 13 in Mercer County is a 2005 Seagrave tiller. I believe that they are a combo dept (paid/vollie), but am not 100% sure. Link to images of the tiller can be seen here:

Mt. Holly in Burlington Co. operates a 2000 American LaFrance LTI 104 Foot Tiller, which can be seen here:

I believe they are all vollie also.
