I left a lot of noseprints at various fire stations in our travels, including New Minas, N.S. I did find this brush breaker sitting out side the fire station. "Smokey" was built by Lewis R Benedict and looks like it will go ANYWHERE!

All I can say is I have to put New Minas on the 'bucket' list! Holy crap, just when you think you've seen them all! NICE find Terry!!

While I have not photographed at Safety Boss in Alberta for several years, the following images represent some of their earlier units. Smokey I is a 1982 Superior/Peterbilt 840/650/200 3,000# of Purple K

This unit and its twin Smokey III were taken over to Kuwait to fight the major oil field fires there. It is my understanding that they were never brought back to Canada following this service.

[Big Dave]

Smokey II based at Drayton Valley, Alberta 1986 Superior/PB 1250/700/200 3,000# Purple K

This unit did not go to Kuwait.

[Big Dave]

Smokey V 1991 Superior/PB 1750/350/200 1,500# Purple K

Again, this never served in Kuwait. In fact, I think it was built after the Safety Boss crews had returned to Canada.

[Big Dave]

Unit #701 1987 Intercontinental Truck Body/FL 350/400/250 1,000# Purple K

[Big Dave]

Unit #202 1992 Pierce Lance/1995 General Body & Equipment 840/0/200 s/n #E7283-01

The chassis is from a Regina, Saskatchewan pumper that was burned at a fire.

[Big Dave]

Unit #107 1993 Superior/PB 1995 ITB trailer

1750/2600/200 2,000# Purple K. Note that the pump panel cover is up. The graphics represent the Kuwait fires.

Big Dave do you have any more photos of safety Boss and can you please post your photos of Syncrude's refinery rigs please

[Big Dave]

that is all the photos I have of Safety Boss' rigs. I do not have permission to post any photos I have of Syncrude's apparatus.

Not sure what # in the Smokey series these are, but Maxi Metal a small regional builder in Quebec, has apparently built three new units for Safety Boss (if you scroll through the small photos at the top, it's the fourth or fifth truck show): http://www.maxiincendie.com/realisations.php
