Hey guys, I was wondering if Springfield, IL still has its EOWS system?

Re: Springfield, IL EOWS
All of springfield's old sirens were taken out a long time ago. Some of the parts on my Tbolt came from Springfield.

Re: Springfield, IL EOWS
From what I've gathered, Springfield had a mismatch of 2001s, 612s, Thunderbolts, SD-10s and a variety of Model X sirens. In 2006 they were all professionally restored and repainted and reinstalled. I believe it was only a year or two after that they got a Federal grant to buy all new T-128's. Funny how now the state is broke too!
Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.
