I might be getting a siren

Hello,
Today i realized that i might be getting a siren. This siren is located off of highway DD across from the gas station at the abandoned house. It looks like it is a model 2 or 2T. Yet we don't know yet that we are going to get it. If we do it would be a great siren for me as it is a 120V model the casing on it looks to be rusted and not controls as they appear to be missing. So I won't know until the end of June/July.

Good for you if you get it! If it's a 2T that's even better, those are rare :)! Just make sure if you get it that your power supply can handle the amp draw (Most standard 110/120v outlets can handle a Model 2), and the brushes are OK! Otherwise, good luck with acquiring it! :D

That's, almost without a doubt, an old fire station, not a house.

Because the building is mostly garage, it's definitely an old volunteer fire station. It looks too small to be a house, plus since it's mostly garage it wouldn't be very insulated.
