Model 5 in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

Mon Nov 09, 2009 12:09 am

I found this Model 5 yesterday, and took this photo. I know it's located next to the Dobbin House, but if there's a better location to say where it is, I'm not too sure. I wasn't able to take a better look at the location.

Great picture!

Looks pretty rusty

Any idea if it's still in service?

There are 2 other sirens in this town. An STH-10, and a Sterling M-10. the M is used as a fire siren while the 5 and STH are tornado sirens.
Here's my youtube
Hoping to explore all of Pennsylvania and states surrounding PA for sirens,

Wait hold up Chrysler, who made Big Red made Decots?

Yes, we’ve had other topics discussing it. This thread is almost 10 years old... my class stopped here on the way back from our 8th grade DC trip. Now, I’m a college graduate working full time. :shock:
