Silent hill siren

[Excalibur148c]

We have one like this in our city, but with a mesh screen on the front.

[myrealghostbusters]

sounds like the sirens we had here in Waukesha, WI before they were all replaced by the ones used today.

[THEFINALHAZARD]

What makes this siren 'famous'?

[ALLERTORLOVER69]

@THEFINALHAZARD the worlds most annoying sound. and being the first siren with battery back up. i think

[CricketboyStudios]

@THEFINALHAZARD Famous for surviving a tornado and flying through the air, crashing though the windows, and ending up in the west English room of the high school.

@CricketboyStudios so they just stuck it back onto the pole and said "lets see if it works "

[metalbeak14]

@CricketboyStudios Is this a federal signal 2001? It sure sounds like it

[dockwellian45]

I wouldn't call these 'Mock Tornado Warnings"...I'd call them 'Siren Testing'.

[dockwellian45]

That's the first 2001 I've seen with a screen on it, like a Thunderbolt.

[myfave2]

Hey...it wuz 7 o'clock when our drill practice went on!! i wuz on the computer...and when i heard it, i went outside, and listened to it. And something really scary...i was caught in a tornado watch and warning 3 times within two weeks!! it was thursday, the 18th *i think* our sirens went off, and there was 3 rotating clouds *alexandria, mn* one over I-94, and two near the bank *two blocks away from my house* And i was freaked out when the sirens went off!!! me, mom, and a daycare kid went to...

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

Great sounding 2001-DC! It looks like it has a weather screen.

[myfave2]

you can see it!! so u can tell!! lol

[CricketboyStudios]

It keeps the birds out but, not the snow.

[myrealghostbusters]

@CricketboyStudios it's funny to see birds sitting up on the sirens, and then the siren goes off and scares the birds out. i'd like to know what they're thinking as soon as they hear the siren.

[joek0617]

@EvanToTheFutureDude 2001's suck

[CricketboyStudios]

I don't know. There are fallout shelter signs all over town that have been there since the 1950s. So I'm guessing they must have had sirens. This town was pretty small then, so they maybe had a a thunderbolt or a few model 5s or 7s.

[Siren1000T1]

I wonder why FS stopped making those incredible DC versions. Those seem to have a better chance for siren life then today's 130s.

[growingup15]

dude i just love the siren sounds it likes put you in a trance.

[Coverdillem]

Nice job recording the 2001-DC!

[Dj77440time]
