Low mounted Sirens in US

[Antiwhoknows]

Looks like 22-23' to the top of the pole and another 7' or so to the top of the chopper cap.

Look for the Model 2s before each tunnel entrance. They are probably about 10 feet off the ground!

Those are to alert vehicles that are over height that they won't fit in the tunnel so they can pull off. I believe they are rerouted to US-6.

I know what they are for. How high are they, do you think?

Not everyone knows what they are for. I'd say they are 8'-10', depending on what side of them you are on.

Here's the Model 2s for those who don't want to look for them.

There is a relatively low-mounted Model 5/7 behind the former North Bend Fire Company in Salem, NJ (my great-great uncle lived there). The old firehouse is just south of the Franklin Bank. The Model 5/7 is double pole-mounted.

How about this Screamer in Vanlue, OH? It may still be used for Fire Paging. The SRN belongs to Hancock County

This one is pretty low... Located in Colfax, Indiana. I would guess 15-20 feet off the ground.

The STH-10 in Eva, AL is rather low mounted:
