Chelmsford Sterling Siren/Fire Whistle

Sun Jun 29, 2014 9:30 am

Found this photograph from the Chelmsford Fire Department in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Sterling K2/K5 siren was on top of the old West fire station at the corner of Joy and Main Streets. I wonder if it's still there today?

Looks like the building is still there (albeit with changes to the front door), but the siren is MIA
