Re: Olathe Kansas: What is this?

I got another siren!

Howdy all!

I am now the owner of Statham, GA's old Model 2. Big thanks to Chris Bartenfeld for making that happen for me! It's a Federal Sign and Signal Model 2 120.

Here is another, with the sound sped up, but it's the 3 cycle recording we've all heard on here.

Re: My Federal Signal Modulator 6048B

Glad to see it go to a good home! I had full intentions of messing around with it, seeing what worked etc, but priorities come into play and side projects get pushed to the back burner. It's neat how the whole thing works, how the horns deflect the sound down into the tops of the pods, and that help...

Re: Favorite Train Horn? (If you like trains)

I grew up just a few miles from the CSX Abbeville Subdivision, during the era of CSX forming from Chessie and Seaboard.

Re: Advice For Newer Enthusiasts?
