I see Portland Fire has ordered two new heavy duty rescue type trucks this year. They seem to be set up as a Rehab Unit with air refill capability. 


Are they in service yet and does anyone have photos to post? 

These are the only photos I've seen, the "in production" variety from Hughes Fire website. http://www.hughesfire.com/assets/28847-0...final-.pdf

 

I don't know if they're in service, but they were delivered in April I believe, so they should be in service soon if they aren't already.

 

Station 10 and Station 12 used to each have an Air Unit truck, and a Rehab truck. And there is a spare Air Unit at another station from what I've heard, but don't which station it is located at. I believe that Station 10 still has both units, but the Rehab that was at Station 12 moved to Station 19. 

 

*Station 10 has Truck 10 (rear mount aerial quint), Air 10, Rehab 10.

*Station 12 has Engine 12, Heavy Squad 12 (cross-staffed tillered-squad), Air 12.

*Station 19 has Engine 19, Rescue 19, Rehab 19. 

 

Other specialty apparatus include: USAR 1 and Trench Rescue 1 at Station 1, HazMat Units at Station 7, Mobile Command Truck at Station 9, Heavy Squad at Station 18 (CBRNE, also carries high rise equipment), Heavy Squad at Station 24 (CBRNE, Marine and Shipboard equipment), Foam Engine at Station 24. As far as I know, there is also still a foam trailer with turrets located at Station 6.
