It could be but I think the stators look too small.
Sirenco sirens are like that. They are smaller than Carters and Lion Kings. Also where else would anyone get a new horizontal siren like that?

What I'm saying is the Sirenco model you attached has bigger stators than the pictured mystery siren.
Sirens may not be sexy, but they sure work.

I'm not really sure about that. They look pretty similar IMO.

What is this? I can't figure it out for the life of me. It has 3-phase power running to it.

I'm going to guesstimate that its a single headed Darley or Sterling or similar.

Looks like a Darley Champion Horizontal with 3/4 of a Thunderbeam shroud over it.

General Electric or B&M siren. Most likely General because of the chopper design.

If it is a siren, I have to agree with nvanw27, if it is a siren it would have to be horizontal. A Champion (or maybe an old Sirenco?) is about the only thing that could fit. That's an awfully new looking pole for something like that, and three phase seems excessive for such a small siren. Could it be a 5G cell or something similar?

Agreeing(?) with the skepticism part there, the enclosure seems a bit too far to one side to house a siren (unless it's single tone or something along the lines of that). The box being at the top (which is also unusual) and being mounted on something inside the housing instead of the pole itself suggests that it might not be a siren, though I could be wrong.
