Pontiac,IL Tornado Sirens

[RailsandRoads]

Dwight Has TWO thunderbolts... the one by the gradeschool has an interesting port ratio

[matteng1997]

@RailsandRoads Probably a 4/5 ratio i'd assume. All the ones in Pontiac are 5/6

Sounds great! Pontiac still has a ton of Thunderbolts. I live in Bloomington and they still have most of their thunderbolts from the 60's and 70's too.

[matteng1997]

and they have never thought of taking them down. I think as long as the stay running, they'll won't be replaced.

[bigchevy80]

Yeah Bloomington hasn't replaced any of theirs that I know of. They have put a few new sirens up as the town has grown bigger. There is a 1000-T about a block away from my house. Bloomington also likes to mount their Thunderbolts on top of buildings. There's at least 3 in town like that that I can think of.
