This mod replaced a vortext from being hit by a car awhile ago.
I don't have any other information on it other than WSS put it in.

Side note, the vortext on 24 mile just east of the m-53 freeway that was almost surrounded by trees is now viewable from all sides. a developer has thinned out the trees.

Jeff from WSS has said almost everytime I've been there that they are going to clean the yard and start scraping most of the sirens and other items in the yard. And i've been going there 2-3 times a year since 2007. Alot of the sirens there are beyond repair. Out of the pile of t-bolts probably you ...

I'm curious, what model is it? Which one? The journal one is likely a 1000. The airport one could be either.

The siren at the FD at Mt Elliot and Davison moved down the street is what I meant. I don't live in the city

Davison and Mt Elliot is across the street and south a bit. a few are on grand river. The one along I-75 south of old tiger stadium is in the same spot. Engine 47 has one out front near the street. there are a few along 7 mile between telegraph and southfield freeway. The tbolt on berg south of 8 mi...

Denver has a very dry climate so these things last forever. I've also found that the 2001DCs and even the Thunderbolt 1003s from the '80s are consistently rustier than the Cold War sirens.
