We are still in Hawleyville, where we get a pleasant surprise in the form of the noon fire siren above the Hawleyville Volunteer Fire Department. I wasn't aware of the time, so I missed a portion of the first wind-up of the siren. The siren is a Federal Signal sth10. In the background, you can hear the turbocharged 645 of Housatonic Railroad GP35 3604 as it revs up while drilling the lumber yard. This video is dedicated to airraidsiren. Enjoy the sounds of the siren and the sounds of the engine. If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me. Comments are welcome. The video was taken on January 18th, 2012.

I grew up in a small volunteer fire department. Out siren went down about 5years ago and the town has not allocated funds to fix it. This video brought a tear to my eye and the biggest smile on my face because I don’t get to hear that anymore.

We had a 12:00 siren, just like this one, when I grew up in the early 60's. The siren was quite a ways away, but I always liked it. Mostly because the only time you would hear it was when you were out of school in the summer! Of course, if I lived near that siren, I might have a different opinion. But for me, I just had a "summer time flashback"!

I've spent time in two towns here in Oregon that mark noon with their fire siren. (Well, did. I don't think the sirens exist anymore. Been replaced by e-technology). Both ran the siren for only one cycle for the "noon whistle." It's interesting that this town does multiple cycles, just like for an actual alarm to call out the firefighters.

That siren was originally from Thomaston Fire Dept and was located on the roof of the old (haunted) firehouse on Main Street. When the roof was re-done it was removed. After a short storage time it was sold to Hawleyville to replace their old model 7 siren which was on a pole that was the original "flagpole" on Main Street in the center of Newtown...see what you learned today!!!

They took our little Firehouse out of commission! They built a new one larger and they went to radios instead of the siren. They went to automatic notification on cell phones for storms. But the city took the small firehouse and made it into a made it into Museum and everyday at noon and 10 p.m. the siren sounds just like it did since it was put in 1930s. Noon whistle test and 10 p.m. was curfew 16 and under. If you were out after 10 p.m. you could be cited with a ticket. LOL of course that doesn't happen anymore but the whistle doesn't know

Does this fire siren also serve as a tornado siren?? Does it make different sounds for each? If not, how can you tell a fire emergency from a tornado warning?? 🤔

@samuelbirkett3954 4 жыл бұрын

I used to live in a small town with a siren very similar to this one I don't know how true this is but my parents always told me that it would blow at noon to let the farmers out in the field know that it was lunchtime back in the day. It might have been just a convinient time to test it. However, when it blew a longer tone that was supposed to be a tornado warning and it used to blow as a way to page the firefighters when they had a call go out. Most of that is probably old tradition but when I was a kid it would blow for every fire call. I was also taught that the first man to the station would be the one to turn it off and it would blow until he got there. I don't know how true that is but it always facsinated me as a kid

@PJBovio 4 жыл бұрын

@@samuelbirkett3954 Thanks for the reply, Samuel!! I grew up in a small town in MA, and we had a fire whistle - the Whistle from Hell. God, that thing was terrifying!! Made the bones go cold. It blew at noon, 5pm (end of the work day) and curfew (9pm or 10pm). For "no school" during winter storms it blew twice then twice again. It blew once for ambulance, five times for the volunteer department. And then for fires: three times to signal a fire was in progress, and then it would blow out the box number for the part of town the fire was in; i.e. Box 24 was two blows, pause, then four blows. But here's the killer: our whistle would blow the box number three times rather than just one time like other town whistles! And when it's the Whistle from Hell ... 😦😯😫

Yes, it is very much intended to grab your attention. The siren is to call volunteer firefighters in case their pager doesn't work or they don't get the text/active 911 alert. According to the description, this sounds like the neighboring town needed support with a fire, so they called the volunteers for mutual aid.
