Yesterday, I found the siren graveyard after the Thunderbolt 1000 siren test. It is located in Great Falls, SC behind Great Falls fire department! I got so excited when I found it!
The county is NOT selling any of the sirens. They are being refurbished and put back up in service.
Here is the photo slideshow video:

Sweet find! Strange how they were all painted white and not their famed CD yellow.

It looks like they got them from the same place Charlie got his. Either the air is really moist there, or they used the most god awful paint for these.
Also eeeew C-series. Nice pics though.

Hmm, would they be looking for a professional outfit to refurb these sirens?
