I know they were, just figured some people would have wanted to see it since it has to do with Whelen`s sirens. Still interesting to see basically how their built.

SIRENNET Shows How Whelen Sirens Are Built

I don`t how many of you watch SIRENNET`s videos. They are a company based out of Oregon that sells things like strobe lights, beacons, police sirens,etc. So when I saw this video I was pretty surprised seeing as it has to do with Whelen`s outdoor warning sirens. Basically, narrated by a guy named St...

Independence, Ohio has one. I also believe Haverhill, MA has a striped and jailbar Thunderbolt. (I could be wrong) I`m looking to see if they have one now. If there`s one in Haverhill I wanna see it since it`s not too far. It's at the FD. Im not 100% sure its a jailbar or if its even striped. It wa...

I know Denver had one or two but they will probably soon or already have been removed. Although I thought I read the old Denver sirens were coming down in the spring.

Wow it's got the work platform too! These things are easily 700+ pounds. The steel on them is like a wells fargo truck. But you can fit one in the bed of a Dodge Dakota! http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/398588_3319247938491_1029431140_n.jpg I think it`s a little over payload! Can`t believ...

Thanks for the photos! Glad it didn't get scrapped and hopefully went to a good home. These things are beasts, 6 feet tall and solid steel. They sure are! I wish I had it, those platforms are so cool, always wanted to stand on one next to one of these sirens. I thought these sirens were like 1/2 th...
