The Siren Board

Hey all,I was wondering if i could get some locations and Models of sirens on this path: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source= ... F8&t=h&z=6

I'll try to get photos of most of them. (This is for my Siren Graveyard trip,if you haven't noticed.)

I can't view the map as I am on my iPod touch at the moment, but I do know that Fort Worth has a full system of Whelen Vortex's

Fort Worth has a system of Whelen Vortex/4004 sirens, Dallas has a host of Federal Signal 2001s, Crowley has Federal Signal Modulators. Theres a whole bunch of sirens in that area from seemingly every manufacturer. I will try and make a list of them in the southern parts of Dallas/Tarrant county

I only know of a handful of towns off the top of my head that have sirens along the I-20 corridor. The farther west you go, the lesser the chances there are of encountering sirens. I'm guessing you won't see much at all once you pass Pecos until you reach some place in Arizona, since New Mexico towns normally do not use sirens. To my knowledge, El Paso doesn't have a siren system.

Note that these are just the sirens I know exist. Many you cannot see from I-20, however, I thought I'd include the towns/sirens, just in case you felt like going for a quick hunt.

Eastland, TX: Whelens (Vortexes?)
Sweetwater, TX: Thunderbolt 1003, Sentry 20V2Ts, and ATIs.
Roscoe, TX: Model 5 and some type of Sterling
Loraine, TX: Model 5
Colorado City, TX: 2001s
Big Spring, TX: Model 5Ts, 2T22s
Stanton, TX: Model 5
Midland, TX: ATIs, Model 5
Odessa, TX: Couldn't find any sirens; however, they must have been overlooked. The city website says that there was indeed a siren system at one time.
Monahans, TX: at least one Sentry 15/20V2T; there has to be more than this...

EDIT: Found a Sentry 10V2T in Pecos, TX. There surely are more than that...but I figured I'd add it to the list: http://www.jmarcoz.com/sirens/pecoscity_tx.jpg

May I get some test dates as well,we're going sometime in early June I believe..

Dallas also has a Sentry that looks pretty new, I believe this is Dallas, that`s what the google streetview says.

That is actually the "island" of Highland Park, TX. They are completely surrounded by Dallas on 3 sides, and border the other island, University Park. I didn't know they had Sentry's though. Great find!

I think there is a howler in fort worth
