I wonder how things would be different if the tables were turned, if ACA crashed and burned and SoundMaster emerged victorious? It would be interesting to see a modern day product from them.

There could be others but that is all I could find.

I clicked the Maps link and it works for me. The Tomah siren was a single phase two signal ACA Banshee 115, given away by the mounting platform design, short intake pipes, and stumpier Doerr motor. I have another photo of the siren and it's easy to tell it apart from a Soundmaster 115. Neillsville, WI had a similar Banshee 115 at some point - I don't have its photo saved but it looked very similar to Tomah's siren. Stumpy little honey dipper sirens.

It's great to have you back Justin. Keep up the good research!
Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.
