Sirens right next to interstate highways

Thu Apr 17, 2014 1:42 pm

I mean remote interstate highways where there is nothing. Do you have any pictures of sirens mounted right next to rural, remote interstate highways?

Here's a Modulator 3012 along I-40 outside of Amarillo. There's really not much around it.

I've also seen a Whelen 3016 along I-90 near Ashtabula, Ohio. That same system also has 4004s and Federal Signal Equinoxes.

My brother and i were out on delivery in rural TX when we saw a few sirens that were located
in the middle of rural country. Its part of San Angelo's system. Because we had a deadline and i wasn't expecting to
see much of anything i didn't get a picture of it, but here it is on streetview. Its about as rural as you can get.

Cool. Not to get off topic, but could you tell me the locations of those 4000s and Equinoxes? Likely those are for Perry Nuclear.

Near the intersection of interstate 55 & 80 there is a Fulton 128. Sorry but I don't have a photo since there are not any good vantage points.

No photos, but in Evanston, Wyoming, there is a 2001 just feet from the Utah border next to I-80, and another one on the other side of the freeway about a quarter mile east.

One of Columbus Ohio’s 4004s is right off of I-270 Eastbound. There is also a Werden P-127, off of I-70 Eastbound in Englewood. I unfortunately do not have any picture of these sirens.

Do you have a better location of that 4004? I can't find any Franklin County 4004s off 270 Eastbound.
