Found this siren on the way to a Penn State football game. Anyone from my area know anything about it? I have a few good pictures that I took.
It's single phase so I might see who owns it so I can acquire it possibly

The power has been completely cut there were wires that we're disconnected and had no source of power. If I can go back and get better pictures when it's not rainy. I will post them I tried posting a picture of the power switch but it won't let me from my phone

The one thing I'm curious about is the RCM have any of the experts seen a rcm like this before and why only Federal on the tag?

Yeah! Try to get it! Sadly, sirens on a pole are hard to get.. I hear you have to go through Municipalities, then pay them to take it down...

My dad has a crane truck that he could borrow from work if I honestly could nab this gem all I'd have to do is pay them for it and have my dad take it down in the truck. The siren itself is in remarkably decent shape but the RCM and power box are not Who knows I might go and ask about it next time I'm up there

Fire Siren for the Pleasant Gap Fire Department, not sure what happened here though.. it was working just fine last year when I went through town. Call the fire department president and speak with him, that is the person who you would need to go through.

Something tells me it's probably yet another case of some residents complaining about the noise levels.
