@1thumpasaurus Cary, IL. NW burgs of Chicago, between Barrington and Crystal Lake, IL.

@TransitWeather That is correct. The last two I know of are here in Cary and Hoffman Estates. Both had been taken down about 10 years ago for about a year. I would believe that was done for maintenance and service work. I have lived in Cary since I was 6 (1986) and the siren has always been here.

Where exactly is this siren? I've been trying to find an ALLERTOR in the burbs before they all go the way of my beloved Thunderbolt 1000T

I don't know.. I have to say these are one of the coolest looking sirens of them all. Only the Thunderbolt sounds better but I LOVE the nostalgia of the smaller Darbys or Sterling Verts.
