    Thank you to the historian who holds all of the Crown Firecoach historical records. I think this machine was built when they were still built in Los Angeles. This is serial number F-1579 and tags have been added to the photos to support searching. It's a 100-foot Maxim rear-mount steel ladder. It was Chula Vista Truck 1 and the 5271 on the rear may be a mutual aid number and radio callsign.

    Going from memory, 9-1-1 was introduced in California between 1979 and 1981. This newer color photo was taken after 9-1-1 was introduced in California:

    Today's engineering exercise: how would you design the safety interlock between the Monocab and the station platform doors?

    The elevator is a single point of failure. Imagine you're in a wheelchair. You get out of the last Monocab at 1 am to discover the elevator is, "not responding to the call button." Is there a way to reach help in these days before wireless phones? Can you summon an elevator mechanic at 1 am? (If you can, they'll be grumpy. 😄)

    Thanks for this, I added an older color photo of the monocab to the Wikipedia entry.
