Here are a few of my pictures that I would consider epic, first off this Thunderbolt 1003 in the middle of absolute nowhere in the back mountains of Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Siren is fully self contained, as there is a building at the base of it with a generator for the siren. I have no idea what it's purpose could possibly be, it is too far from the Berwick area to be part of the Susquehanna Steam Nuclear Power Plant system. It reminds me of an installation that you would find for a military type establishment though there is none in the area that I am aware of.

I may be wrong, but wouldn't this be a System 7000?
No, a 7000 is a portable unit with a smallish building just beneath the siren head. This is just a typical 1003 with a hella cool installation.
7000s are portable? This is news to me.

Yea who said 7000s were portable? The only portable ones I've seen are the ones on the back of the pickups in Seattle.
Own and love a Thunderbolt 1000 and a Model 5.

A more accurate description is that 7000's are self-contained. Now let's keep the topic from derailing.

Sorry. Back OT then. Probably not the MOST epic siren pic I've ever taken but this one I thought was cool nonetheless.

What even is it? I have seen it floating around, but have never heard any info?
My knowledge excels on the Federal Thunderbolt siren and SiraTone EOWS sirens. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The image is removed from our quotes. Scroll up and you will see them on top of that building.
