CMK- the reserves are the original 2009 Impel and the 2007 Dash. The Dash has been designated for the truck to switch into when the tower goes OOS.

Thanks DH.
They still have another reserve engine (E47?) that they can use as backup for the other three while this arrangement is in place, correct?
I thought I saw it in a station video tour I saw several months ago.

Lombard sold the reserve tower a few months ago. This is their only truck…Engine 46 has been running in its place and will continue to until TL44 is back in service at some point in the summer.

Looks like Merrionette Park is getting a new truck. JK

So, didn’t Lombard sell their reserve tower ladder recently? Or do they still have two of them?
