There are usually a couple listed on Ebay at any given time.

Too bad Federal doesn't still make these. These beat the pants off the electronic "fake" Q's our EMS uses.

You were brother, my best friend, and hero. The world was truly a better place because you were here!

The Model 28 was rather a small siren but pretty hefty, it was the mainstay of the FDNY, NYPD unmarked cars and NYCTPD, not sure what the Housing or Port Authority Depts used. They are very loud for there size and you could feel the vibration inside the passenger compartment.

The marked cars of the NYPD during the 70s had a P660 mounted on the roof, like to see those make a come back, when they were maintained and worked properly, they had an echo effect.

The looks on this video are rather deceiving, the 28 siren was a pretty hefty unit, they were standard on NYPD unmarked and NYCTPD cars, not really sure what the Housing or Port Authority Depts had. They are an extremely loud siren. I know, because that was the siren in my father's unmarked unit.

I'd like the see the NYPD go back to the P660 Siren, when the 660 was maintained and worked correctly, you did know where the RMP was coming from , major echo effect :)
