Hydro Sub Station Fire - March 13, 2009
My roommate called me to his window, and told there was a fire downtown. When I saw a huge lomb up, I was out the door with digi cam in hand. I headed east on the 417 towards the huge cloud of smoke. I got off the Queensway at Montreal Rd, and was met by a huge volume of traffic. The fire was at the Hydro Sub Station on Shefford Rd, near Canotek. I made my way to an area north of the fire, and was able to get a few pictures of crews working. When I arrived the fire was still rolling, however, the two tower ladders (L51 and L53) made short work of the fire. Crews also used a few large hand lines to bring the beast under control.
