Awesome stuff, Bobby - particularly the Digby Neck truck. This Mack is an 87. I also show Brighton Barton as having a 74 Mack 3000 gallon tanker - the 87 must have replaced it.

Dean,
The "74 Mack Is gone........Brighton/Barton only has the 3 rigs........i'll be interested to see where the Pierce came from. The chief was the one who pulled the rigs out for me......he had just "happened" to be there as I was driving by!
Canada Eh? - e290l103 - 09-03-2012
Dean,
I have to say I checked out the Canadian Fire Truck Archive and all I can say is outstanding! so much information, it will take me weeks to digest it all! I hope to be able to send you some info as I go thru my Canadian Mack apparatus slides.
Thanks for putting that together!

Nice shot of the ex-Prince Albert Ladder. Do you have any idea who did the re-build?
Canada Eh? - atlanticfiretrucks - 09-05-2012
Warren,
I have no idea.....i'll ask around and see what I can find out.

I know this request is off the Canada subject here, but does anyone have a picture of this rig when it served at Sun City West? I had no idea they ever had this rig. Thanks in advance!

The IFBA convention was held in Toronto this year and I was fortunate enough to attend. Had a very nice time, met some fellow fire buffs, and shot a few trucks as well. Rescue engine 423 is a 2010 Crimson Spartan Metro Star with a 1250 pump and 500 gallon water tank.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 09-08-2012
Aerial 341 was one of those shots where you had to dodge traffic, be alert, and shoot really fast! A-341 is a 2009 Smeal Spartan Sirius with a 1250 pump, 380 gallon water tank and 105' ladder.

General Safety built this 1998 ALF Eagle with 1050/ 500 specs which runs as R 444 in Toronto.
Canada Eh? - Guest - 09-08-2012
High Rise 332 was stationed a few blocks from the convention hotel, and for the few days we were there, managed to have several runs to the hotel, all which turned out to be nuisanse calls. High Rise 332 was built in 2005 by Dependable Emergency Vehicles on a Spartan Metro Star chassis.

Some of the apparatus display took place at the Toronto training academy and Training Pump 6 was one of the training engines made available for photos. TRP 6 is an E-1 Superior Cyclone with 11050 pump500 gallon water tank, 15 gallon foam tank and 50' Teleboom.

We even had a water display by both Toronto Fire Boats. FB 334 is the William Lyon MacKenzie, built in 1963 by Russell Brothers, and pumps 7000 gallons a minute, carries 1000 gallons of foam, and has a 55' Amador Elevating platform mid ship.

The back body was replaced a few years ago. It is a Plastisol body and the truck was refurbed at Dependable Emergency Vehicles.
As a side note about HR332 - this is one of if not the only fully staffed high rise units in North America. In the busy summer it can run 35+ calls over a 24 hour shift!
