Just checked that out and that is 100% not an FP10. Most likely not a 777 either, I don’t really see why there would be a siren there though because it is not a site that has a hazardous risks site. If it is a siren maybe it does noon whistles?

What you're seeing is some sort of light installation for the travel center on the other side of the bluff. Not a siren.

If that's so, it might be a Champion, because that color scheme looks like this Champ from Dublin TX: https://www.google.com/maps/@32.0844294 ... 312!8i6656
Is this like that?

From the streetview, it doesn’t look like anything to me. Did you get pictures of it up close or anything by chance? It’s extremely unlikely that it’s a siren.

Hi, I am one of the Australian siren enthusiasts. Actually, what the picture you had shown as you had mentioned Grifco 777 siren is obviously irrelevent to Grifco 777 siren. Sorry for the grammar errors, I am in a rush. It looks a bit like Grifco 666 siren but painted in white.

The picture below is a SIRcom SiBT series siren in Australia. For my user photo, it is a Telegrafia Pavian siren in Australia.
