Re: Cook County, IL Siren Map

Evanston is not correct, at the moment. The Thunderbolts off of Central have been replaced (Stations 3 and 5) with 2001s, as well as the Thunderbolt at station 4 (Dodge and Washington). The Thunderbolts at the high school, police department and station 2 are still standing, I drove through last week...

Re: Thunderbolts in existence

Just found this map and can't find any info using the search function on here, and I don't want to look through all 18 pages of this thread... Does anyone have any information on the 1000T listed as privately owned, but shows smack dab in the middle of the Illinois rock river? Description states &q...

Re: eBay find, Thunderbolt... 2000?

I saw that the other day. He doesn't picture any of the controls or cabinets, and without that he'd be lucky to get $1500

Re: eBay find, Thunderbolt... 2000?

Thanks guys, I'd heard of the 7000 series sirens but never the 2000 series. So if the chopper and rotator motors were in fact 12VDC, was there a small generator in the blower housing as well to power that? Or was that meant to come from another source?

Re: Illinois Outdoor Warning System

Just drove past West Ridge's Jailbar 1000 and she's sitting a little crooked. There's a cone on the roof, and I'm worried she's going to be coming down. I wonder if the roof is collapsing on the abandoned fire department...
