November | 2018 | Somerset Fire

After dealing with many months of painstaking details the new Rescue 56 is in full service. Within a few hours the new rig responded to numerous calls and has been busy ever since. We are expecting many years of problem free service. We are sad to see the old R56 leave us after many years of faithful service. However, we are equally excited to run the new and improved Rescue 56 for many years into the future.

FINALLY!!!! July 20, 2018 – The new Rescue 56 is scheduled for delivery tonight at 1700 hours. A few last minute tweeks and the relocation of the equipment from the old Rescue 56 it should be in service in less than a week.

Update- May 17, 2018 Rescue 56 received a lot of traffic at the EVI/ Seagrave booth. Many nice comments on the new rig. Here she is…
