Cochrane Fire Services (Alberta)

==History==
===Fire Stations===
The fire stations surrounding Calgary were originally numbered between 50 and 99 when the stations began receiving dispatch services from Calgary Fire Department in 1996. These numbers continued when the stations/departments transitioned to being dispatched by the separate entity Calgary 9-1-1 in 2006. As Calgary Fire Department continued to expand, it became necessary for CFD to reclaim the station numbers for future expansion, and the stations in the area were assigned new numbers as a result. Their historical station numbers are listed below the current numbers.
