Siren Related Dreams

Thu Nov 14, 2024 3:11 pm

I thought of this because of the subreddit "r/thomastheplankengine" and how funny it can get.
This is just the Reddit for siren people, so I think it would be funny to share our siren-related dreams here.

I had a dream recently where Federal Signal put thermite grenades inside of the 2001-130s and the grenade would randomly go off during a test so that cities would have to pay to get a new siren.
I found this out after I was at a test recording and it started on fire and fell to the ground, where we put it out (with the fire extinguisher we just seemingly had on hand??) and there was a thermite grenade in it in perfect condition for some reason, and so we just sued Federal Signal and won, in like a 30-second case. So they made a new siren model called the "4T22," which was just a 2001-130 painted yellow.
Then the dream ended.

I've had many dreams that have the same fire station in them. It's next to a really big park and is covered with trees, but there's either 2 or one pole absolutely covered with Model 2s and 5s.

I had one dream where they were replacing one, and I actually got mad about it because it was supposedly "the only one left," but with a pole covered with them, that was just weird.

Is YOUR fire station safe from Model 2s??

I think there was a thread on the Off Topic forum years ago about this.
As a firefighter, siren dreams can throw me off balance, because I wake up suddenly and check to see if we actually got a call; a little less than half the time it's real, but it happens more than it should, haha.

If I recall, the original thread was locked a couple years ago due to the posts becoming increasingly ridiculous. But since this one has been started, I'll recap a rather memorable dream I had in 2019. It involved a Thunderbolt 1000 in the ceiling in my place of work, where a vent normally lived. Being excited to see the 1000, I decided to try to set it off to see if it would shake and rattle the building. Unfortunately, what I got instead was a really weak, high-pitched wail that sounded more like Elmo's voice imitating a siren. :x After that disappointment, the Thunderbolt blinked a few times, disappeared, and the vent that was normally there in real life returned. I still can't figure that dream out to this day.

I'm always looking out for sirens wherever I go, so it was inevitable that they would infiltrate my dreams XD

I generally have a lot of dreams regarding discovering or purchasing sirens, I wouldn't be able to pinpoint a single interesting one.

This is a siren dream i had maybe 2 or so years ago, I had saw that Gibbon Minnesota had removed the Sound-Master 125 and had been on an auction site, nobody had bidded besides me and i had won the siren, the following day we left and it took us about 8 or so hours to get to Gibbon. We met the auctioneer person and loaded the siren up, once i was back home i took it to a shop and they tested it with 3 Phase 240, it had ran perfectly, then i worked on the rotator and got that working. Then i performed a full test of it with the rotation, then i had woken up.
