It could also be a single headed Sterling. Just a few guesses.murrfarms wrote:That's quite possibly a Mars-branded siren, which was basically designed after the Federal Type B. They just used a different mounting base for the motor and a little different sheet metal work, but as best I can tell the mechanical parts of the Mars siren are the same as a Federal B.freebrickproductions wrote:Can someone identify this one?

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
This siren's motor cover and projector, unless they were painted some really dark color, look rusty, and the Penetrator's fiberglass don't rust. It looks somewhat like the siren in this post:

I'm going to guess an early single headed Type-B, so I second what Ian (murrfarms) said.Notre.Dame1003 wrote:I'm going back to get better pictures of this soon, but any idea what it is? It's not very big at all.

Could it possibly be a Denver?

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
If it were a Denver it would have some space between the motor shroud and the chopper. unless that metal shroud we see is over that space (which appears to be a chopper cover) then it isn't a Denver

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
This is a siren I saw driving by the Effingham County Cultural Center & Museum (I think). But, I don't know what kind it is.. It's a bad picture...

I don't think that's a siren. Maybe part of a PA system?Cadets+ wrote:This is a siren I saw driving by the Effingham County Cultural Center & Museum (I think). But, I don't know what kind it is.. It's a bad picture...

I did a bit more Googling, and it looks like an Altec Lansing Theater Horns, I figured it out by looking at a Siren Map...

It's an early Cyclone, I believe the ring is in the bottom to direct the sound outwards.
