Posted March 24, 2017 Last week, I had the opportunity to check out the new LAFD Heavy Rescue 56. What an impressive rig!! 2016 Peterbilt 567 with a Century 50 Ton Rotator (can be remote controlled) and body, 10KW generator, and air compressor syste,m, amongst many other customizations. This rig replaces a similar rig, a 2003 Peterbilt/Century, which will become a fully equipped spare. The spare is replacing the former spare, which will be kept in the USAR caches. Thanks again to the crew at Station 56 and the HR56 guys! Rescue51 and E0001 like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I heard that as well. It is because a Chief at Headquarters want it. No one else does, logistically it's a horrible location. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
