Where's the fire

 Well there wasn't one, but if there had been they certainly had the apparatus to put it down. A gathering of firetrucks at the Cunard Centre / Pier 23 on July 6 attracted my attention.

The first one I noticed was this Pierce with a "Chicago" style black roof:

 Nearby was this Fort Garry  on a Freightliner commercial chassis:

The next one in line for a photo was a Fort Garry / Spartan demo unit on the company's 100th anniversary tour:

To cap off the display was this impressive Sutphen centre-mount aerial:

Once rare in Canada, Sutphen, from Columbus, OH, is now exclusively represented in Canada by Fort Garry Fire Trucks from Winnipeg.


There were some other vehicles around but I didn't have time to get specs or look beyond the big stuff, except for Federal Signal's demo truck:
