I just returned form a trip to las Vegas making trips to about 12 of the stations. According to the guys there, Heavy Rescue 44 will be getting their now rig in a few months. It is going to a few trade shows before it's delivered (maybe FDIC). In addition, all the engines are going to be replaced based on the contract w/ Pierce for a 7 year replacement plan. I can only assume this will take place over a year or two.
It was no easy task to get all the rigs at station 1 in house at the same time. I made an attempt there 4 times and was only able to get E201 and R301.
