This was video taped back in July 5th, 2008 by me. This siren is no longer there anymore. The West Shore Service Crew moved this siren to a different location in Livonia due to the fact that they made different tornado siren locations for the city of Livonia, Michigan. Due to the YouTube uploader back then shrinking the quality, the video obviously came out blurry which I wasn't expecting it to.

There is a Federal Signal 2001-130 about a quarter mile east of the Fire Station located at the Livonia Community Recreation Center.

  • why would they get rid of perfectly good working sirens. If i was you since living there do you you realize your tax money got wasted on new things not needed, anyways your vids are awesome i enjoy watching them from time to time.

  • This siren here actually got moved to a different location in Livonia that replaced a 3016. When the new 2001-130s came, the West Shore Service Crew did the siren locations. Some of the locations are in the same spot to where the old sirens use to be and some are in new locations to where there has not been a siren there before. They did that to make certain areas in Livonia have more siren sound coverage.

  • Was this the siren by the fire department by a park?

    if so i remember this one:D

  • There is no park right next to the Livonia Fire Dept but the Police Dept is right behind the Fire Dept. This is in the downtown section of Livonia.

  • When was the first 2001 introduced?

  • I believe 1988 is when they started to make the 2001 ACs which were the origanal roundbacks.

  • That's kind of dumb that they replaced a 2001 with a 2001. All they really needed to do was update the controls. That's what they did to the 2001 at 10 Mile and Beck Rd. It's one of the old ones like this and they replaced the controls when I lived there like 3 years ago.

  • i think it would look better if there was a t-128!!

  • Honestly I think theses sound better than the 130s. These arent quite as high pitched, kinda in the middle :)

  • there going to be sounding in a litttle while!!!

  • The only way I am able to navigate to my college everyday is by counting the 5 2001's on the way, not including the one right on campus that I visit quite often. :D

    As lame as this model is compared to others, the 2001's are beginning to grow on me. Nice video!

  • dude great video dan! that is exactly the pitch 2001's should be

  • I think the 2001 DC is the best kind. That's what I thought this one was.

  • This is a 2001 SRN the early versions of the 2001 series. I like them alright. The new 130's are too high pitched. They also have the same rotator motor as the thunderbolt.

  • These are one of the best 2001 sirens.

  • i like the sound of this siren , this is the type they have at the town i live in , its a lot better
