Last year, museum curator Maria Martins made the decision to sell off the fire trucks and put the word out to fire museums throughout the province. This caught the attention of the mainly retired firefighters at the West Vancouver Fire Museum. Quebec-based Thibault built only 24 Thibault AWIT models like this pumper in 1954. Sixteen of these fire trucks went to the Canadian military. Records showed that a 1954 Thibault had been sold to the Port Hardy Fire Department, and that would have ended the interest until volunteers started comparing old photos of Number 31 to current photos. “We noticed that the right front tire had raised lettering that were the same as in a photo taken before the truck was removed from service,” says museum society president Rick Titcomb. “That’s our truck!”
