Mike, you are correct. Lansing had 3 engines (103, 105,106) and a truck (107). Forget pump and tank sizes, but a 100′ Pirsch ladder, and all 4 were diesel/manual.

I want to say that I was thinking that Lansing had a couple of Mack CF engines and a truck?

These were quite common in Milwaukee the last one MFD bought was in 1988 and it served well into the 2010’s if memory serves. Nice shot.
