Which of these 3V8s is a Sterling, and which is a Darley?

I always thought this was a Sterling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfxG-W2flJQ
(There is one like this in Purcellville, VA).

And this was a Darley:

(There is one like this at Foxcroft School in Middleburg, VA).

A lot of people get them mixed up, so it could be the other way around.

I've been meaning to make a topic for this. The Darley is the top video. Darley sirens have a tall chopper with the shroud up on mounting brackets. Sterling sirens have a short chopper with the shroud mounted directly to the stator.

Thanks, I'm always getting the stupid things confused...
