Port Moody, BC had Anderson build this truck in 1980 with 1250/250. Dave Stewardson photo. [/quote] This was the ONLY Scot Chassis Anderson ever built a fire truck on and it was delivered in a nice slime green colour...safe to assume it ripened up to red somewhere along the line <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Great posts Ken... <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/luxhello.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/luxhello.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Saint John Oil Refinery
former SCOT Industrial Pumper specs unknown..(John, can you fill in the blanks?)
Here is the Fredericton Platform taken last summer. The truck wouldnt start, hence the dreaded station shot.

Saint John Oil Refinery former SCOT Industrial Pumper specs unknown..(John, can you fill in the blanks?) [/quote] This is the X Irving Oil Refinery (St John,NB)Rig and was a: 1976 Scot C1FD / Fire-X 500/800AFFF Scot #36P655 (It had a shop number of 76-655 on the corner of the cab above the turn signals) I will assume this rig was dxed after Irving Oil but the NEW E\-One Foam Truck.
Thanks John,
The Irving refinery did dispose of this after geting the E\-One. It has been sitting in a salvage yard for about 10+ yrs now...I think it has met its ultimate fate and was recently cut up though. Did you manage to ever get a shot of this in service??

Etobicoke, Ontario had two of these 1978 King 840/500 rigs. [/quote] One of these 2 rigs were sold to Westchester, NS and was recently replaced by a new 2007 Freightliner/Metalfab. The old SCOT was sitting in the Fire Chiefs yard for awhile.....i'll see if I can find it.

[/quote] No, I have never taken a shot of it but, yes, I do have shots from both sides of when it was in service in my collection...unfortunately, it was taken by a person who had to ensure it stayed "out" of the public eye and therefore I can't post these shots <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsdown.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> but it was the deal I had to make to get them and will continue to live by it. Irving is a very, very private family owned Company and try really hard to keep it that way. |
