What's this? It looks like it is dual toned.
It's an Erick Siren.

Behind the Fire Department - What is this thing? Almost looks like it could be radio related but also has the potential to be a siren.

Sterling K5? The legs seems similar to one, but it looks bigger. Maybe custom housing.

To me it sort of looks like one of those MS-290/Wolo FA mini sirens. If those holes in the sides are ports, not radio equipment, then that's my guess.

I thought I saw a stator and chopper inside it.

Now, this one isn't much of a siren anymore, but possibly a former siren location. I was bored, so I was strolling through Google Maps Streetview in areas of town I hadn't been to before, and I stumbled upon what looked like an old siren tower, not too far away from one of the T-128s in the current siren system. It almost looks like there's still a yellow siren control box mounted on it?

I'm not too sure what siren would've gone here. Maybe an old ACA siren or Federal Signal? Judging from the yellow control box?

Most likely a former siren location. Possibly a Model 5/7 motor housing part.
