I was not aware Sireno ever made large sirens! Thank you for sharing!

Oh man, that looks like the Weeksville station south of Elizabeth City. I've driven by it many times and wondered what the type was exactly. It's a rare siren! I live over on the OBX. Are there any problems with it?

Sireno liked to copy Federal. Every time Federal came out with a vehicle siren, Sireno would usually make their own version. I have asked the owner of B&M, Kevin, as I believe he would know.

That's really cool - and on the edge of my ex-local area, no less. How I never found it is beyond me... Thanks for sharing!

Yep,
Sireno sure did make large sirens. I know of 2 close by to me. Do you have or can you get a video of your's sounding?

if that first one has a sterling tag then it could be some sort of K-5 siren unless sterling re-branded sireno sirens.

Jacob, The sterling tag is for the motor. The motor is a Sterling Electric motor, the company is based in Los Angeles. The siren is made by
Sireno. Like I said earlier, every time Federal made a vehicle siren,
Sireno made their own version, so it doesn’t surprise me they did the same with stationary sirens.

Oh I thought sterling re-branded it.
