“This model has been issued in 1985 to support existing Fire Watch sets in Lego Town. With long ladder is really helpful in coming back with help to minifigures catched on upper levels of buildings.”

BrickEconomy Member Review
“The Hook and Ladder Truck from 1986 combines classic LEGO design with innovative light and sound features. The fire truck includes a functional ladder that extends and accommodates a minifigure, adding realism to its playability. Accessories such as hoses, tools, and an air tank enhance the set, while the trailer provides additional utility. The light and sound elements, with interchangeable colored caps, offer interactive fun, making this a standout piece in vintage LEGO collections.”
 

About Town Fire

The LEGO Town Fire theme, spanning from 1980 to 1997, focused on firefighting and fire safety in an urban setting. Key sets in this theme include 6382 Fire Station, a central hub for fire operations, and 6385 Fire House-I, which provided an expanded base of operations. The 6554 Blaze Brigade featured a fire response unit, and 6480 Hook and Ladder Truck offered advanced firefighting capabilities with its extendable ladder. .

Fire consists of 27 sets that ran from 1980 to 1997. As of today, 6382 Fire Station is the most valuable Fire set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $915.
Summary
Town Fire Hook and Ladder Truck set 6480 was released in July 1986, retailing for $20, but has since been retired. New, unopened Hook and Ladder Truck sets are valued at $273, while used sets can be found for $46 in good condition.
