Canada Eh?

The Town of Carleton Place, Ontario is an hour west of Ottawa, and is home to the Ocean Wave Fire Company and Eastway Emergency Vehicles.  The Ocean Wave Fire Company runs out of a single station and has a full time Chief, Deputy Chief and 2 Fire Prevention/Fire Fighters, along with a complement of volunteer firefighters.  They just placed this new rescue in service in August, and this is the first to be painted with the black over red paint scheme.  The 2010 Spartan Gladiator 3 door chassis was originally a tri-axle, one of several that were produced, but never utilized.  OWFC purchased the truck at a greatly reduced rate, had 2 of the axles removed and Eastway constructed the rescue/command body in 2015. Eastway is constructing a new pumper that should be delivered within the next 8 weeks.  Plans are to paint their Seagrave ladder black over red in 2016.

 

Rescue 240 is a 2010 Spartan Gladiator/2015 Eastway heavy rescue/command.
