I thought this was a Model 5 when I first heard it, but after listening to it again, I'm not sure. The wind-down seems a little fast to me for an STH, but the tone seems right.

It's a three phase STH-10, located at the fire hall in the downtown area. It does have somewhat of a quicker wind down than what's considered "normal", which may just be the motor bearings starting to show their age. Here's where the siren is at for anyone interested: http://goo.gl/maps/0RlVJ

Thanks, Ian. Sometimes it's hard to tell between the two especially if the audio quality isn't great.

I know this siren well, it's Station 70's white STH-10 that sits behind the station, I know the tones that activate it as well.

When is this tested? I might try to record it via the rail cam.

I hate to bump an old thread, but I spent the first 7 months of my life directly across the street from this very active (at the time, at least) siren. My old house is now a parking lot. It is most likely what inspired the terror, which eventually turned into fascination and obsession which has stretched almost 26 years now. This exact STH-10 is why I am a siren enthusiast.

I haven't been on the board for about a year (life happens), but I have had a lot of siren action lately, including acquiring a Sterling Little Giant yesterday, which brought me back. I saw this while surfing through what I missed, and could not help but comment. Sorry Jason/Mods if I am violating anything here. It's just pretty cool to see this.

Not at all. Glad to see you are still around and congrats on your new siren!

Nice to see another Little Giant owner on here, congrats! Any pics?
