Niles Michigan still has 3 Allertors in their city. They are controlled by the fire department. Every winter a different Allertor goes down for refurbishing. The fire department is hoping to get 10+ more years out of those things.

Try more like 30+. The third and final one was taken down last week.

I've seen an Allertor in Memphis at East High School and I've heard it was a gas powered allertor.
I know a lot of people would have known by now, but that was a converted from gas to electric Mobil Directo. ACA never made gasoline powered Allertors.

Correct. That siren was a gas powered Mobil Directo, but has been converted to electric. I can confirm one Allertor in West Point, but that is the only one.

I'm pretty sure Jonesboro, AR has (had?) at least one.
Confirmed via Siren Archive:

That Allertor in Jonesboro is gone. I was able to confirm it with streetview from 2008 and satellite view.

I looked around on Google Maps checking street view at every railroad crossing until I found it.
