The Siren Board

I also decided to try out this vintage aerial website and found a photo of our township's Model 5/7 from 1980.

"Born to raise Hell" certainly sounds like a good way to advertise the siren!

Anyways, I went onto that Vintage Aerial website again and found this STL-10B.

An XT22 at the Branchport, NY Fire Department. Taken around 1985. The siren still sits at the station to this day on the very same mount.

That's a 3T22. I can see the solenoids on the siren.

Oh I didn't see the solenoids on the siren.
Thanks for notifying me.

Sorry if someone else posted these before.

Here is an SD-10 being installed before the cold war at an unknown year and location.

A CLM behind the Fire Station at Edmonton, Ontario. The siren has been removed. Date is unknown.

Well, this certainly answers some questions...

At the bottom is yours truly's siren

Another siren pic. Interesting fact about my siren is that the shroud is from around 1958-1961, but the siren is from 1965-1970...
Very odd.

I remember seeing that photo some time ago. I want to say that was somewhere in Colorado if memory serves me right.

EDIT: I reverse image searched it, and it turns out it was taken at Mississippi Ave. & Joliet St. in Aurora, Colorado on February 18, 1967.
