Nottinghamshire's specialist rescue team responds to road accidents involving large vehicles or multiple vehicles as well as dealing with water rescue, rope rescue from height, animal rescue and rescue from confined spaces.
Until new specialist rescue units (see below) are put on the run in 2012, two Dennis Sabre / John Dennis Coachbuilders rescue tenders are being used. S360 ATO is based at Highfields, Nottingham to cover the south of the county.
S362 ATO is based at Tuxford to cover the north of the county.
In addition to the main rescue tender, each station has a rapid response unit (RRU) carrying an initial response level of equipment.
This is a 2007 Land Rover Discovery, FD57 YGW, based at Highfields.
Tuxford's RRU is this 2008 Ford Ranger, FJ08 ZBC
