Mystery Siren In Rutland, Massachusetts

[Luke Moran]

I have spotted a weird siren on top of the Rutland, Massachusetts Fire Department, and I don't know what it is. What really makes me not know what it is is the parts in between the norns & the motor cover, as I cannot tell if there is either the Stator & Rotor, or just some supports of some sort. My Guess is what it could be is a Federal Electric Type B, Sterling Little Giant, or a Darley Horizontal Siren of some sort.

Strange, I'll have to check that out some time. It tests at 5:55 PM every day from what I can see.

I didn't see anything online about a large horizontal siren that was made by "Volco." When I looked it up it showed me small buzzers made by Volvo, nothing the size of this. There isn't anything on the wiki about it either. Are you sure you spelled it right, or is this a siren from a different country? If it is from a different country, this is Massachusetts, USA. I don't really think a small town in the US would buy a single siren that isn't even from the same country just to put it on top of their Fire Department. The costs would be insane!

That KoreanCo individual is well-known for spreading nonsense and misinformation. They previously vandalized the Fictional Siren Wiki as well. Don't take anything they say seriously.

I can't see very well due to the quality of the picture, but the base that the motor is mounted on looks very Sterling-ish. My guess is something Sterling.

[ArxCyberwolf]

It's not a Sterling. It doesn't remotely resemble any of their sirens. Doesn't have the distinctive base, motor housing is too thin to fit a normal M motor, and the overall dimensions look wrong to be even a modified M. Doesn't appear to be a Mach B, Darley or anything else from the larger manufacturers. My guess is it's something made by a smaller company, possibly local.
