ARCHIVED: Mystery Sirens (2008-3/2021)

Not all Model 1s had conical housings...

Interesting you should post that ad, it took away one of my mystery sirens that I photographed a few years ago. The Brockton Fire Department up in rural Schuylkill County has the smallest of those sirens mounted in the belltower of thier old firehouse. It is hard to get a good picture so here is the best I got, it looks exactly like the smallest Fedalcode in that ad though.

The Back Creek Valley Fire Department in West Virgina somewhere has this odd contraption, it almost looks like a HOR Siro-drone under there that they have added horns to the intake side of but who knows....

First one is a Modified GCS Model 3/5. The second one is a Sirodrone.

The Goodyear Hose Company siren looks like a Model 3 flipped on its head, maybe a 5. The Newton-Wayne one looks like someone maybe took a Canadian Model 2 (which were upside-down) and stuck a GCS hat on it. Very strange.

[Model L]

the earlier electronic siren is almost definitly a master blaster

I would think the same thing, but the rotor isn't all that similar to a Model 3/5; the vanes are all full length, like an STH-10. A Model 3/5 has four full length games and eight partial (the reason they has a slight undertone). As far as the Goodyear siren is concerned, I haven't the foggiest idea...

I was thinking the same, but it seems to be much too small to be an STH-10.

Below the Model 2.

Edit: I think it might be an ACA banshee 110.

That looks way too small for a banshee. I think banshee 110 'skirts' are bigger than a Model 2 housing, plus the motor that would be on top of it is way to small for a banshee as well.

Found this in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. I'm thinking ATI or DSA?
