No it's obviously magenta.
It's clearly lime green.

Back onto the topic, It looks great so far!

I like what you guys did with the paint there. I can't wait to see it in action.
By the way, how old is this siren?

After a night of not very much sleep and a bit of a road trip we made it out to Hubbard, Tx to install their freshly painted and overhauled T-128. The Hubbard Volunteer Fire Department purchased this siren and asked to have it overhauled and repainted. When the discussion came up about what color the siren should be painted I suggested the yellow color and doing something a bit different and not seen on a T-128. It has been a very busy 48 hours, Wednesday morning the siren came down by that night it was taken apart and ready for a mechanical overhaul and cleanup. We finished up painting and overhaul thursday and loaded up thursday night to install this thing on Friday.


It was a long hard day but it was a job complete and very noisy! I would not of been able to pull this off without the tremendous help from Jeb (Holler) and Ian (murrfarms) so a big thank you goes to them as well as the Hubbard Volunteer Fire Department.

Here are some pics from the installation... and yes Hubbard, Tx officially has a YELLOW... T-128.

I am very pleased to see these Norman sirens being given a second life in communities that value them.

Superb job guys! It looks great!

Looks like I need to add a siren to my map, do you know the address or nearest intersection that this siren is located at? Thanks.

This looks amazing, nice job!
