The final piece of apparatus the department operates is this 2001 Crestline ambulance built on a Ford F350 chassis. This is a bit unusual as British Columbia uses a province wide EMS/ambulance service so most fire rescue services do not operate ambos. The closest provincial EMS station is on the next island, a ferry ride away so the department has this vehicle as a response vehicle until B.C. Ambulance can arrive.

Thanks for posting these and Delta's rigs. I always enjoy a history lesson of the department whose rigs are being showcased. Hope you will post some more from other BC departments.
