C: I have a idea! The number to that FD is (517) 627-1157.
If you call them, I bet they would gladly be able to tell you! Also, you should ask if that Denver siren on their roof is still active :P (Probably not though.)

EDIT: I found this video from 2015.. so I'd think they would be still active.

I have another idea sunshine, the video you posted answered my question, so why should I bother calling?

I reason I asked in the first place is because of this video and its description:

I heard they were replaced by 2001's from Bill. (Sirenfan1000/amtrak3501) Either that, or are not active.
In my opinion, I think there way too many 2001's in Indiana!

I go thru Grand Ledge every couple of months. The Allertor at the Fire Station usually is in a different direction every time I pass thru. I've never been by the building mounted one. As posted above Grand Ledge has some 2001's also.

Both Allertors are operational and test with the county wide schedule. The Denver Siren is/was active but only used in an emergency and only operated by a switch in the station. Last I knew it was tested once a year. I havent been to grand ledge in a couole years though. That might have changed

They aren't the only Allertors in Michigan. There are 3 refurbished Allertors in Niles.
My other ride is a 1950 Chrysler-Bell Victory siren.
