Squad 3 (Heavy Rescue) Equipment inventory.
« on: May 14, 2009, 15:46:05 »
Today was the weekly inventory on the heavy rescue so what better time to take picture of all the equipment it carries.  ;D

First, I'll start with a little background information on the truck. The Squad responds to all working fires in the city and township of Playmobil as the designated RIT company (rescue possible downed firefighters), to all technical rescues (water, collapse, highangle, elevator, etc), all haz-mat incidents, and all motor vehicle crashes with entrapment.

Now to the truck...

I've finally added numbers and stuff to the sides to make it match the rest of the fleet.

Now all the stuff...

Compartment 1 carries the cribbing load - 2x4's and a sledge hammer

The cribbing is used to stabilize vehicles involved in wrecks.

The cab also has some stuff mounted in it. On the dash the officer has a mobil data terminal to keep up to date with the latest info on the run or where the unit is going. A flashlight and phone are also mounted in the cab. Behind the officer's side door there are also some tools for easy access.

And if anyone was wondering, fleet services can still work on the engine.

That's an awesome custom and equipped vehicle you've got there, Ben.  Truly outstanding.
