Im not sure but i dont think so. But CLM industries made the siren so i think is just named after the makers.
Do you know of ANY existing recordings out there of a CLM by any chance?

Maybe CLM stands for something in French.

It also says that CLM sirens were used in Chicago.

I remember years ago someone had a bunch of those things for sale on ebay. Still in their crates,they were all outside on the ground.It was in a past thread on the old board. I could be wrong here but I think it was a cd777 thread.I wonder if those same sirens are in the same location today.

"Blues Brothers" comes to mind here although they used it as a fake speaker to talk through.

Chicago's system actually consisted of ThunderBolts, but the film-makers used the Toronto siren as a stand-in.

I remember those. It was in 2000 I think. They also had a model 5 brand new in the crate as well.
