Cold Tapping Demonstration

We demonstrated “Off Loading” or “Cold Tapping” a semi-tanker. This process starts with unloading hazardous liquids when the valves are damaged or inaccessible, and then up-righting the semi-trailer. In a real accident, these tankers could be filled with flammable, combustible, or corrosive liquid. This process is very dangerous if not done correctly, and is considered a “last resort.”

The MSR team is specifically trained for Cold Tapping and other scenarios to ensure the safety of everyone on scene!

Heavy Recovery Demonstration

Gray’s Towing Service demonstrated a few heavy recovery scenarios. This vehicle entrapment scenario depicted a car that had rear-ended a school bus. The 50 ton rotator, “The Tator” is able to stabilize, remove, and assist with technical entrapments and other heavy vehicle recoveries.

Our Fleet Past and Present

We were thrilled to have some incredible restored and mid-restoration Gray’s Towing and George’s Towing trucks (and racecar!) displayed in the shop alongside our current fleet. The time spent and attention to detail on these restorations truly shined!
