I'll chat up the TR techs from 18 to figure out what the tunnel rescue support unit will carry. Give me a few days, I took a day of annual leave and tacked it on to this four day break giving me six days off. As a rule, unless pressing/urgent or mandatory OT is involved, I don't do FD stuff on my days off (anymore). I believe though it is geared for WMATA's Metro tunnel construction that has already started in Tyson's.

That would be my best guess as well. Look how many holes are getting dug, a collapse/tunnel rescue unit comes in handy, and it can be used as a regional asset, there are one or two tunnels in the Washington DC metropolitan area.
