Re: My siren maps

Here's some help for some of your Kansas mystery sirens. Rexford - Thunderbeam Axtell - Model 5. Peep the facebook page mentioned below, and a different photo of the water shows what appears to be another siren on the tower, based on a power line running to it. I cant make it out though. The last ph...

Darley Model 2?
I'm not too hip on Darley identification, but the Colorado map has it identified as a Champion.

Re: Mystery siren in Weldon, IL

It's a transformer bank, more than likely for the town well. One thing you can try doing is googling the town and looking at the pictures that pop up. I do that occasionally when I'm working on the Nebraska map and I occasionally get success. Searching the town for photos on facebook may help as well.

Re: Miscellaneous Siren Photos Thread

While out cruising tonight, I decided to check out Cumro Nebraska. When I pulled into the ghost town/remnants I was surprised/shocked to be greeted by a Screamer. Cumro has two houses, some grain bins, a substation, and an fire department outpost for Eddyville, which is south of Cumro. Yeah the pict...

I’d wonder if any Hawaiian enthusiast (granted, if they have the space) would take it (of course, if EMA would let them). I tried to get the Maunuala bay (sorry if I b...

Re: Miscellaneous Siren Photos Thread

That looks to be a ED Bullard 3H27, nice find! Not very many of these in the Midwest! My initial thought was a modified hornless STL-10 with a newer motor. Glad I kept my mouth shut on that one. +1 for you! Thanks! I wasn’t quite sure what this was until I saw the old mounts for where the legs used...

Re: Nebraska Statewide Map

The 2001-SRN at 30th Ave and Hwy 30 in Kearney within the last couple of days was relocated to the northeast side of the intersection. For anyone mapping that's interested.
