Another Syracuse, NY Thunderbolt located! (Historical photo)

Tue Aug 11, 2015 8:19 pm

I had to double take when I saw this! At Taunton FD, right outside city limits, no longer standing. Way back when, the city of Syracuse installed about 20 Thunderbolt 1000's to warn of a nuclear attack. The only Syracuse Thunderbolt left standing today is in Lyncourt, well taken care of and still in service as a fire siren.

So this makes three known locations! Great find!
Edit: I'm willing to bet that the old Eastwood fire station (the one that's a retirement home now) had one as well.
