leylandvictory2 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 OPP is also getting a new batch of Impulas in the new colour anytime now, and isnt the Charger cost more than a Crown Vic and Impula another reason why they are 3rd in police sales? I like that new frightliner bottle truck they got that holds supplies for the ESU fleet I believe Boston uses Freighliner ambulance or something. I hate the new OPP livery. Its looks ugly.

2020 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 The aerial/ladder is probably a Spartan chassis with Smeal body work, we've also got 3 new ones last year and 2 more due this year. Don't have that fancy steerable tag axle, but would be good for some neighbourhoods. Have they gone 100% into platforms like Edmonton or are they just bare ladders? Yes it is Smeal that's the name I was trying to think of. Sorry, but what do you mean by platforms? From my observations I haven't seen any ladders on this truck unless they are tucked away in many of those compartments on the side of the truck itself.

smallspy Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 That scheme is not only awful but it reminds alot of antother Police Service's scheme I think its York Region Police or another one perhaps. The best one I have seen but only on the news and not on the 400 series highways are the OPP's crown vics which have returned to the traditional black and white. Another scheme that I like is the all black crown vic that the Traffic division (TPS) seems to use. This cruiser has no lights on the roof but one light located in the rear and front windshields and a reflective logo that is seen when light hits the car or you see it up close. I saw my first new OPP Crown Vic yesterday. I'm not a huge fan of it...there's too much black. The "stealth" cars, as they call them, are actually dark blue. Black wouldn't allow enough reflective material to show through, as I understand it. I don't know the size of the fleet, but it's pretty sizeable.

Orion VIII Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Don Winslow has a very nice (and large) collection of American vehicles. ----------------------------- Next time I am in Buffalo I will have to snap one of Cheektowaga's cruisers. They have one of the most impressive schemes I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaT Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Here's the first B&W OPP cruiser in Essex county. Some of you have probably seen the pics on my site already of it. It's a 5 minute car ride/10 minute bike ride from my place. Looking forward to more coming. They should all be here within the next couple months.

Its not new OPP livery its old, it was always that colour up into 1989 when they went with the white with gold/blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MT0603 Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Nice livery on the Police Car! Is that the new livery that will be applied on all the new cars? I saw one for tne first time around Sherway today, I think that's 22 division's area. The car's number was 2204 IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonka Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Ever since moving to Hamilton I've fallen in love with the paint schemes on our emergency vehicles. Very spiffy. Not much detail on them in this picture, but it's still an awesome one. This fire happened last month, 4 alarm in the industrial end of the city.

To find out what area is covered by what division use this page on the TPS website: http://www.torontopolice.on.ca/uniform.php. Also, FYI the first 2 numbers in the cars number is the division it's from but I'm not sure about the ones that I've seen that start with 60XX. Another thing is that the divisions numbers are divided into different groups for different parts of the city, the 10s for York, the 20s are for Etobicoke, the 30s for North York, the 40s Scarborough & the 50s for Central Toronto.

2020 Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Thanks mike from edmonton for your informative post. The truck on Toronto Fire Pics A433 is the truck that I was referring to which seems to have become the new arial in many houses across the City of Toronto. Now I'll have to check out the manufacturer websites too! Today I caught 5405 in the scheme and noticed a large "T" on the roof. What does the T stand for? Tactical or Traffic perhaps? Also I have noticed letters associated with the four-digit number on the sides of some TPS cars such as ETF 3B and COR. Now I know what the ETF stands for but what is 3B and COR?

Matt Demers Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Our fleet is basically made of 2001-2005 Impalas, 1998-2004ish Crown Victorias, some 1997-2000 Ventures, 2005 Grand Caravans (supervisors only) for the SPVM. They own some other oddball cars too. Go to http://www.policecanada.ca for cop car pictures from Montreal and other places in Canada. I find it a good site to find old and new cop car pictures!
