Wollongong City Unit, NSW State Emergency Service -- VR Trailer

Our VR Trailer at night showing the internal lighting

We took a standard-issue Storm Damage Trailer and set it up as a Vertical Rescue response trailer. We made a couple of small modifications to support this role:

Relocated the axle to beneath the leaf springs to give it a bit of a lift to improve it's offroad usability.
Fitted a generator to the front and a light stand with a single 500W flood light.
Fitted White LED strip lighting in the bay doors for internal lighting.

The trailer has two equipment bays on each side along with a slide-out joey bed in the back.
