Could be wrong, but I was always under the assumption that the controls were inside of that little building at the substation. But then again, it would not be logical to have controls for it literally across the place from the siren.
I remember reading a post a long time ago Adam Pollak made about that particular one and he said the controller for it was gone. I can’t completely remember. That might not have even been who said that, but I know the pictures in the topic were taken by him.
For sure. And I didn’t mean to sound disrespectful if I did I just thought it might. Also the jailbar in Yakima WA just might’ve been a bumblebolt.
Weren't all Jailbars originally bumblebolts?

I want to say there are three known Jailbar Thunderbolts with the original striping on the horn that survived into the 21st Century:
This one in Knoxville, TN (out of service)
One somewhere up in Michigan (out of service, may have been removed?)
One in Denver, CO (replaced)
There are/were more than that, but a lot of the ones faded over the years and are either completely yellow now, or completely black except the chopper cap.
Yea, but I was talking about ones that still had/have the stripes visible on them, not if they were originally striped or not.
It's like how there's probably still plenty of former Southern Railway U-boats and Dash-7s running around, but only 6 of them still have the "high-hood" on them.
