I'll check with 582, but I also get a tow started. You can call Skyline and have them set up for it. All right, too long, you have traffic for me. To 255 is inquiring if you want to signal ahead and start Skyline. Also, Wright City has units available. Do you want me to have them start your way?

Yeah, 10-3[4]. It's going to be a 25-foot Class C RV, and then they're probably going to need also a rollback for the Jeep as they can disconnect it between the RV and the Jeep. Let's clear. Also, do you have a number on your subject? He's not coming back by name or date of birth. Thank you. Stand by.

Also, where do you want the right city officer to respond to what area? If you, stand by. Fire 82, that's $500. Ships are clear. Hi, if you will. 5882. You want to also notify fire. There's going to be a 30-pound propane tank in the RV, and it is three-quarters.

to almost full. That's clear. How many gallons was it? 30 pounds of propane, 3-0. All right, we'll notify them. Great, too, go ahead. Where do you want Bright City to go? Do you want them to stop traffic before you, to divert them onto another roadway or in your advice?

Be Weldon, if you want to start right city diverting traffic off west of my location, fire is just arriving on City. We're going to have the roadway shut down for at least an hour to two hours.
