It's spinning counter-clockwise, is it a b-series?

[el1998p71]

@thrmoz456 it's not a B series, it's a A series.

This is a beatiful and healthy sounding thunderbolt. I love the wind up, in act at one point towards the beginning of the wind up, it soundded sort of like a supercharged 3t22.

[Ryan1823]

there aint too many thunderbolts still in michigan...i know of at least 2 in allegan county and one in kalamazoo county....but there could be more....the 2 in allegan county are perched up on the local fire stations and the one is on the pfizer building in downtown kalamazoo....also the pfizer building out in richland has one too if im not mistaken



[el1998p71]

@Ryan1823 It is true that there is not as many as there was back in the 70's, but I've found over 100 still in use in lower michigan

I SO miss the old Thunderbolt sirens! It's good to know that they're in some spots in Michigan.

Is this a 4/5 or 5/6 Thunderbolt?

[gajda1984]

@USRoute66 5/6

[JPa311979]

Nice looking structure it's on. The horn stopped in just the correct spot for you also.

[kc9hyr2]

very healthy sounding thunderbolt.

[wmh2008]

That's got excellent pitch! It sounds just like the one we used to have in West Salem.
