I'm very new to the area, and I was wondering if anyone here had any familiarity with the siren system of Jasper County, MO and anywhere nearby? I understand Joplin had sustained severe damage in the 2011 tornado and, from what it looks like, put their system through a complete overhaul utilizing exclusively Federal Signal 2001's.
So my hopes of finding any functioning vintage sirens nearby might be squandered understandably.
However I'm very interested in taking possibly lengthy road trips across the midwest to catch sight of anything notable and interesting even marginally. I've already been to Missouri State's campus in Springfield to see an SD-10 and an STH-10. So, the sky's the limit! I'm happy for whatever knowledge anyone wishes to bestow on me.
On that note, does anyone know if the supposed Thunderbolts located in Baxter Springs, MO are still up and functioning?
