Proud owner of a Lion King LK-100 hand crank siren. I also can also brag about riding behind a "Climax" locomotive...almost 10 years later.

While out cruising tonight, I decided to check out Cumro Nebraska. When I pulled into the ghost town/remnants I was surprised/shocked to be greeted by a Screamer. Cumro has two houses, some grain bins, a substation, and an fire department outpost for Eddyville, which is south of Cumro. Yeah the picture isn't the greatest considering I took it at dusk, with my headlights helping, but I felt it was worth sharing.

East Brookfield, MA's 3T22 (I believe) and Sterling M-series siren in August of 2008, around the same time as the Thunderbolt 1003 I posted in this thread. Both sirens in the photo have since been removed.

I have returned with more stuff:

One of many brand-new FS 2001-130s with a 131DST strobe light in Deer Park, TX. A system of these replaced a mostly old Whelen system as of August 2023. Used for chemical plant related emergencies and severe weather after the city received a direct hit from a TOR in January 2023.

FS 508 in Texas City, TX. A system of these in both Texas city and neighboring city La Marque is used for Chemical plant related emergencies and possibly severe weather.

FS MOD II 5020B in Baytown, TX. A large system of these is strictly used for chemical plant related emergencies only.

Fedelcode Mach 7 (with a custom shroud) and a grounded STL-10 in Dayton, TX. God knows what the deal is with the STL is, been there on the ground for who knows how long. Fedelcode status is up in the air, as there is no known test times or purpose of this siren. Same deal with Sterling in town too, which I have photos of in a previous post on this thread.

I'm not too hip on Darley identification, but the Colorado map has it identified as a Champion.

Mystery unit found in Como, TX, appears to use some DIY modifications, including a belt drive.

Looks like a B&M siren of some sorts, it seems to me that the original motor burned out and as such they either took a rotor off and slapped a pully there to keep the siren working.
