Installed in 1975 and restored in 2011 and still operating today, the Melrose Thunderbolt is the coolest siren I've ever seen and heard, it shakes everything around, it even shakes the neighborhood right behind it! It is a 1000T Thunderbolt, 5/6 port, Chopper level 3, and 2RPM rotator. The power of this siren is a great example of why FS named it the Thunderbolt, it shook the ground like THUNDER!! And, Melrose Fire Department let me set it off for my birthday! BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!! Here's my video of it: https://youtu.be/m7XnxfUcvm0

That's cool! The red looks good on the thunderbolt, hopefully it will sound for years to come.
