According to a certain siren map, I found a picture of a Vertical Lift Bridge in Ottawa, IL. According to the map, There should be a Little Giant here, but all I see is some sort of siren. Its by the roof, so you will have to zoom in a little. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... Bridge.jpg

I've never looked real close at it but it sounds similar to a Little Giant or a Model A. The bridge usually moves 4 times a week or so and you can hear it pretty well around town if you know what to listen for.

Looks like a Sterling Little Giant with a custom housing.

That is definitely a Little Giant, it's just missing the end bells.

I made a thread about this siren a couple years ago. It was confirmed to be a little giant.
