This from Mike Lopina:
I found this sitting in the 103rd St salvage yard last week. E-238. I don’t have my shop list handy so I’ll defer to someone else to provide this rigs history.

Good question. Perhaps it was sitting dead for a long time and they just forgot about it or didn’t get around to it.

Was there any reason why this one particular old rig was kept on the roster this long?

Served a long long time and sadly, it shows it’s age.

Perhaps it’s the same one that was featured on TBT? Numbers tend to change with apparatus
