Any town where newcomers move in and then complain/start a petition to eliminate the volunteer fire department siren (because it's just too noisy and annoys them and they just can't be bothered) should respond by adding an air horn like this along with the siren. Then, ask those people, "So, do you wanna continue complaining?"
Then they sit there and complain about response time when it's THEIR emergency. If me being woken up in the middle of the night means that crews get on scene faster and someone's kid makes it out safe then it's a price that I'm honored to pay
The wavering high and low siren reminds me of the civil defense siren drills from 50 years ago…..that sound indicating to take cover as our nation was under a nuclear attack by Russia and Cuba. Still gives me chills when I hear that sound.
Most of those old civil defense sirens became fire house sirens in the 70s, 80s and 90s. Many are still in use today across the east coast with companies from as far south and west as Missouri to as far north and east as Maine.
I’m a volunteer firefighter, there was a time not to long ago the only way I knew if there was a call was if I heard the horn because I didn’t have my phone and the pagers were out for repair
Ours wakes up several neighbouring boroughs, and many in the next city over. I could hear it from my apartment, three air miles away, over two hills, a valley, and inside. Oh, and the siren is just barely over the railroad grade behind the hall, but behind trees. And i’m in the middle of the city. We’ve been awoken by the similar siren well farther than that, thinking it was our own. Figure two direct miles for the one, at least five for the other. And it’s just an STH-10.
I always come back to this video for the horn sound, it's identical to what Gardner Mass FD used back in the day, I never heard another one like it until this video.
Reminds me of the siren at the station I lived down the block from as a kid. Except ours wouldn't give you the warning of the rise and fall siren before the horn blasts. It started out with a horn blast followed by the main siren. Not pleasant should you be right in front of the station.

I clicked on the video just to see that architecture. That's a beautiful Tudor-revival-style fire hall!

Right? We’d be more than happy to add loudeners, and may just turn one horn in the general direction of aforementioned complainer.
@@jaysmith1408 Hahaha.
Meanwhile, i moved to a district with a career department, who is far more annoying than our station siren, never mind our trucks.
Then they sit there and complain about response time when it's THEIR emergency. If me being woken up in the middle of the night means that crews get on scene faster and someone's kid makes it out safe then it's a price that I'm honored to pay
I like the sound of the horns. Are they cunningham or clark cooper air horns?
"Johnson, you missed that call!" "Sorry chief, I didn't hear the siren." "Didn't...hear...the siren?"
😂
“Did you not have a radio?”

The Bruins scored again.
Yep
it sounds the so Similar then Wood ridges Fog horn and siren in NJ with the siren first and horn last
Lol
Yeah, they’re just watching the game and have the speakers up a bit too far.
No please stop
That siren/air horn combination could wake the dead.
Very nice. DTMF tones are 53A0211. Sirens include an FS Model and a Clark Cooper horn. Glenwood has a Model 7 and Diaphone at station 2.
📣📣
I started as a volunteer in 1964--when pagers and plectrons did not exist. I woke up to horns and sirens.
Siren and horn are great. I assume the horn bleats out a general location while the sire just makes loud noise.
Looked this fire dept up on google maps I am sure the people in the houses around the station love that sound LOL
newgirl091 the point we keep pushing is “well then pay us to sit around waiting, then we’ll already know of the call”
That NHL score horn when a Hockey player scores like This Scoooooooooree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From the New Jersey DEVILS .
no
There isn't just a horn, there's a Federal Model 2 siren in the background too!
Sounds a little overkill but its still really cool
A lot of departments use to do that. Look at video on my profile it is of my families firehouse sirens going off, similar but more horns.
I’m a volunteer firefighter, there was a time not to long ago the only way I knew if there was a call was if I heard the horn because I didn’t have my phone and the pagers were out for repair
That will definitely wake up the neighbors where I live

Do you know the story
Of the people who lived next Door of this fire HQ
In Glenwood landing
Long Island about 65 years ago?
No?
This should the the goal horn for the Winnipeg Jets!
That Federal Signal model 2 sounds like the siren heard in movies.
The Thunderbolts are probably used in the older ones like from the 50s and 60s because they were and are really really good sirens
@@Anzac1this model 2 has to be the stock siren noise. If you listen to this and the stock siren noise, they are far too identical
@@Ahmad__Muslim oh wow I forgot I wrote that comment lol. You are right, it is a model 2.
F major chord in the second inversion. Sounds good! I understand the other station has a diaphone, wonder how that one sounds.
I hear F#, G, and Bb.
first one sounds like the silent hill siren

Bro lol when the first truck horn on the siren sounded the cameraman jumped.....

Right? Lol
That sounds soo cool
im using this as my ring tone

I always come back to this video for the horn sound, it's identical to what Gardner Mass FD used back in the day, I never heard another one like it until this video.
Upton Mass also uses this style airhorn ... its epic !
Love this video
According to the sound of the siren, it’s a Federal Signal Model 2 while the horns sound like Cunningham horns.
I think its great!!!
Where is this located?
Hockey goal! !!! Horn

Awesome!
correction it is a gamewell diaphone not an air horn.
what kind of horn is that
+Charlie Neder that sounds nothing like a diaphone . A diaphone horn sounds like a dying cow that horn sounds like the horn in a hockey arena
+Charlie Neder I know what a diaphone horn is and that horn is not a gamewell diaphone horn
nothing to be sorry about friend
The Chach What's a Cunningham horn ?
Those are Cunningham Horns, Not Diaphones
Sounds like a hockey goal horn
That's amazing😊
horns sound like super tyfon fog horns just like the golden gate fog horns
Sounds like Wood Ridge NJ siren / fog horn
NOTHING sounds like Wood-Ridge NJ......NOTHING

Schonowe FD7 in Rotterdam NY uses just these Horns. They used to have a Model 2, but it broke.
These horns used to be common in Northern California.
Midland Park FD has horns like this, they are loud.
what siren is that?
Federal signal model 2
+TTIAR1 they are a lot smaller then the model 5/7 and they use different ports compared to the model 5/7
Well I know they are smaller, I've seen them. I've just never really heard the difference until now.
+TTIAR1 also like the model 5/7 there's a 2T version like the 5/7T
The church that got repurposed as a Fire station ??
Looks Like A Church
or a ski shack

Glenwood, NY. I don't think anywhere outside the northeast uses fire horns, just sirens.

I think it’s just a test of Glenwood’s house siren and air horns.
