All of Englewood's sirens were replaced right around the same time that Denver got their new system. All the old Allertors and Mobil-Directos were replaced one-for-one by 2001-130s, all mounted on the same old steel poles that the old sirens were on. Matter of fact, I think Google street view is new enough that you can see the new 2001s.

All that's in Denver now is a bunch of 2001-130s. All the old sirens are gone.

You do realize that the street view and aerial imagery is not new enough to show that the sirens are removed, right? This was a recent thing to happen as the project was finished up on July 23rd of this year, and the street view imagery you linked to dates back to October 2011. To further prove my point, I know for a fact that the Thunderbolt atop George Washington High School was removed, yet all Google Maps imagery (street view, aerial, and 45º) still show the siren on the school as seen here.

Also, there is no need to be rude about it. Some of us do know what we're talking about.

Look, i went there about a week ago, the siren is still up, and i went to the 3T22 location about 2 days ago, so im not lying. And how am i rude? Just asking, and anyone know where there are cities with their old siren system still active in Colorado?

In southern and eastern CO; Calhan, Limon, Burlington, Sterling, and La Junta, CO all have older siren systems in place.

* Calhan has a FS&S 550AT.
* Limon has three FS&S SD10s, and one Sentry 3V8-H.
* La Junta has a variety of older (1980s/90s) Sentry Sirens.
* Burlington is also peppered with older sirens as well.
* Sterling has Sentrys and a T-Bolt 1003.
Still close enough to a Fed Sig 550AT to drive out on test day: First Friday in May - 7PM!
