Well good to know it's still around lol. Did you take the picture? If so, could you get a picture of the rotor sometime? I want to see if it resembles anything made by other manufacturers.
In the siren archive, there's a picture of a "mystery siren" at Ochelata. Tell me what you think...SuperBanshee wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2016 6:34 amIn 2004, this omni-directional model was introduced. The rounded stator ports bear similarity to contemporary Federal and ASC fare, however it is not a total match. There are no particular specifications for this siren. If one looks carefully you can see the motor housing is a cube shape - an unorthodox choice.
I'd say the only problem is that the dates don't quite line-up (as, according to the picture, it was taken in 2003), unless either the picture is dated wrong or the siren came out earlier than previously thought. It's also possible that it was a "prototype" version that had been installed, to see how well it'd do in service.dilloncarpenter wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2019 9:52 pmI'm not sure how many of y'all are actively following this topic, but I figured I would share an interesting observation that someone in the Facebook group pointed out.

If only there was a better picture of the old siren in Ochelata. A 2T22 stands in its place.
I can't remember who it was that pointed this out, but the resemblance is definitely there.
I noticed that right after I made the post lol. I left that out hoping someone else would notice and possibly provide more insight. I wondered about the possibility of a prototype also, and the beacon on top is interesting as well.freebrickproductions wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 5:49 pmI'd say the only problem is that the dates don't quite line-up (as, according to the picture, it was taken in 2003), unless either the picture is dated wrong or the siren came out earlier than previously thought.
