Why do I always have bad luck photographing this one?

Today I visited the Denver Firefighters Museum. Upstairs tucked away in a corner was a very commanding and shiny horn!

I talked to a staff member when I mentioned I owned controls for one, and he said the Thunderbolt will soon be permanatly on loan to the Wings Over The Rockies Air and Space Museum thats also in Denver.

Here is an ancient coded Sterling Model M in Seekonk, MA. I highly doubt it's active.

Just as a reminder, "Y-10s" don't exist. Those are Sterling Model M Code Sirens.

I guess I need to brush up on my Sterlings. Thanks for the correction.

No worries! All of those model names such as "M-10" "M-5" "Y-10" "M-3" and "M-5" were all found to have been made up, as Sterling never used those names. Sterling simply referred to them as the "Model M" or "Model M Code Siren" for models with the brakes. A lot simpler and easier, if you ask me. Sentry did rename the M to the Model M-10 when they produced their own version, but that's only for Sentry models.

I see a horn looking thing beside the sterling. What is that?
