Dave, is it being driven down, or floated on a flatbed???


Canada Eh? - Big Dave - 12-30-2010

My understanding is that it will be driven down the first week in January.

The University Of British Columbia in Vancouver operated their own fire department until Oct/1995, at which point Vancouver took over fire/rescue duties. In the summer of 1995, I managed to photograph the apparatus of the University Endowment Lands prior to the turnover of the department to Vancouver. The first engine up is E-3,a Thibault International Cargostar. Unfortunately, I can't find the specs for this truck.

Engine 2 at UBC was a 1978 Pierreville Ford with 1050/500 specs.
