STH-10 on the roof of the Juanita locomotive shops in Altoona, Pennsylvania, circa March 1978. Siren was removed sometime after August 2019.

Nice picture! Sirens and railroads are a couple of my favorite things That was a PRR shop until they were folded into Conrail two years prior to the pic. It's owned by NS now.

This one I believe was installed above Circular Quay Station. Supposedly was purchased by Grafton Fire Station and is still in use to this day.

Ah, know about the one at Grafton fire station but never thought it would be this one.

In the bottom-left of this photo, you can see an H.O.R Siro-Drone in Manhattan, NYC from 1954:



Their system used to consist of Super Sirexes and Siro-Drones. Sadly, they have all been removed. In fact, I believe there is an audio recording on YouTube from 1951 where you can hear them during a CD drill.
