Thank you! You can also add Sirens outside the USA if you'd like. :)
Alright, I’ll start! BAE Systems in Barrow has a siren which has not yet been recorded as far as I know.

EDIT: Wow, this is the 90,000th post in the main forum!

Re: American Signal T-128 in Waukesha, WI

Are my eyes deceiving me or are there enormous panel gaps on the sides covering the rotation mechanism? Not so concerned for water intrusion given it’s facing down but pest intrusion is another matter entirely. What sorts of pests are you referring to? Wasps/Hornets? I’ve never really considered th...

Re: UK Siren Map

Before I forget, as recorded in my latest video, two Klaxon FP10s can be heard on the North Morcambe Terminal site in Barrow. Their exact locations are unknown, but there is probably one either end of the site.

North Morcambe Terminal Ambience

Hello,

We went down to Barrow-in-Furness today for the Spirit Energy siren test. They test the sirens every Friday at 11AM, however they do not always sound the sirens exactly on the hour, they are often a minute or so out.

Re: UK FS 2001-130 test!

Unbelievable recording- sounds so surreal to hear in the UK. What’s this siren used for? I believe the siren is used as a site-wide fire alarm since it is tested alongside the smaller sounders, however there appear to be a few chemical works in the estate so it may also be used in the event of a sp...

Re: UK Siren Map

So I’m totally new to this, we went to Whittingham to see a potential siren (on the map it was a question mark) and I don’t know if this actually is a siren or not, as to me it just looks like a strange shaped chimney :shock: Ps thanks for this map it gave me and my boyfriend a decent amount of ent...

Re: UK Siren Map

Hello, Seems like there was a dual-tone siren at (51.26961599876881, -0.21150121374821673) at one point, as seen on this forum thread that I stumbled upon: https://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?topic=6946.0 This siren was removed sometime before 2008, as it is unable to be seen on StreetView. Another...

Re: UK Siren Map

A fairly significant update - as far as I can tell, the "ASC I-Force" sirens at the Barrow South Morecambe Spirit terminal were actually FS 2T22/3T22s. This image from 2011 shows such a siren clearly on the left side of the photo... SMT XT22.jpg The siren's location matches up with where ...

Re: UK Siren Map

Hello, At one point, Haydon Bridge fire station had a siren, as stated on page 12 of this article: http://www.haydon-news.co.uk/issues/2016nov.pdf The siren was last sounded in 1968, and the fire station was decommissioned in 2016, being demolished 2 years later in 2018. I have sent an email regardi...
