There are no publicly accessible siren graveyards in Georgia, although they do indeed exist. One of these sites is McCranie Warning System's shop.

I am also aware of several public utility departments having sirens in storage, including the one in Alpharetta, which has a Modulator sitting on the ground. At some point in history, Carrollton had a bunch of Ex-Cobb County Thunderbolts in storage, but I've been made aware they were all scrapped.

Then the control box and siren body of 2809 should still be there, right?
I might ask the government to see if they have such a machine, and I will definitely get 2809 down.
County utility department wouldn't lease those for public use. You'd have to rent one from a company, and that's gonna cost you thousands of dollars...
Woooooooo......
