On January 3rd 2012, Western Branch Diesel, Inc. celebrated the employment and retirement of our Transmission Foreman of over 42 years, Daniel Lewis, (better known to some as Dan, Dan the Transmission Man).
We had a luncheon in his honor. WBD’s President Herb Haneman was in attendance, spoke & presented Dan with a gift from the Company. Our Gen. Serv. Mgr. – John Cottle spoke, as did Dan Dixon – Gen. Parts Mgr., and Jon King – Parts & Service Marketing Mgr. Dan’s wife Eliene, his daughter Trisha and son Paul were here, also son in law Victor and cousin Brenda. Dan’s replacement and friend Bob Stuart presented Dan with gifts from co-workers and Allison Transmission, on behalf of Gary Cashwell. Last but not least his friends and co workers who have great admiration for him and will miss him.

Tim,
Dan came out Saturday and helped us out of a pinch, Truck 22 was losing prime and we had our on call mechanic tied up on another issue with another truck. We called Dan because he got great reviews from the guys at the station and they can be a hard bunch to please. They sent me an email about how Dan stayed with the prime issue until it was resolved and during the test drive he found an issue with the turbo charger, you had one in stock and he installed it and they seem to be very happy with the performance of the truck now.
Thank you for the great service and for being a partner with Henrico Fire in providing service to the citizens of Henrico County. Your staff is just as important in putting out the fires and getting the sick and injured to the hospital as the firefighters in our organization.
Have a safe and prosperous 2012,
Stone Smith, Henrico Fire – Fleet Operations Manager

Unveiling highway speed Gradall excavators with our new AutoDrive™ automatic transmission system will be the highlight of our Series IV introduction at ConExpo-Con/Agg next week.
Our AutoDrive system features a six-speed Allison transmission with push-button controls and a new Cushman transfer case – the heart of our new, highly functional remote drive design enabling operators to reposition the carrier from the upper cab. We believe this will be a popular feature for Gradall operators as well as those who are responsible for training operators – especially those who work in cities and drive through congested traffic areas.
