- I was just sitting at the tracks waiting for a train, when I heard a loud noise coming from across the tracks. Turns out it was the siren for the Fire Department building across the street, calling the volunteer fireman to the station. It was very loud!

Being a retired firefighter, I just love the house sirens. Music to my ears. Its amazing the number of Fire-EMS people who are also Railfans!
Great siren even though it’s a single phase siren. I can hear the fluctuation and drag in power to the siren! That’s why 3 phase sirens always sound better !
It was extremely loud for sure. This siren no longer exists because this fire station has closed or been moved. I've only ever heard it once but it definitely startled me when it went off lol
I have a siren and diaphone in my area that no longer sound. The fluctuation from the Erick and the 3-3-3 honk pattern from the diaphone are sounds I miss.
It's not an STH-10, it's a Model 5 mounted on the building. You can see it in Street View images.
Grew up in a small town in New Jersey, the noon sirens bring back so many memories, I loved when new people would come in and freak out
Haha that's funny!
I looked it up on street view. It’s a Model 5 on the roof of the Station.
Me 2
That’s a Signal Toned Model 5 Siren. It sounds very strong and loud
As Strong and Loud as Dalton's FEDELCODE Model 5A Siren!!😎😎
Just the other night I heard this type of fire station siren.
Went to go see fireworks when right before they were to start the sirens sounded because just down the road from me soemwhere in all the crowd a 11 month old started havin a seizure. But they had great response time. Siren only went for a minute then 2 minutes later ambulance was on scene 5 minutes later they left for hospital.
The town I live in used to sound the siren for a fire, ambulance, Noon and bad weather. Sadly, they do not use it much.
That my favoite I love it because it right there by a crossing gate witch has a wch Hayes bell
Man the echo is killer!
Yep and it's VERY loud! The building was moved to a new facility just down the street so I believe this siren is now out of service
Bartow County Georgia needs that 😂 hear the siren MOVE OUT OF THE WAY😂
It was VERY loud. To my knowledge it's no longer there because the fire station moved down the street to a newer building and this became a branch of Bank Of Southside Virginia. Not sure what became of the siren to be honest.
@@VArailfan89 oh ok I was just saying bartow needs that
@@VArailfan89 and wow
@@VArailfan89 what state is this in
The Model 5 doesn’t drag. It quickly winds up unless underpowered. This is likely an overpowered Federal Signal STH-10B.
Model 5. Streetview
LMFAO i agree! 🤣
@ Kacy Peters: I have to admit, it was pretty neat!
Okay so I lived in Florida for three years, and then my family picked up and moved to a small town in Maryland and they have a siren just like this, the first time I heard it was in the middle of the night during a storm, honestly one of the scariest things ever.
Oof...yeah I can see why that'd freak you out. One day I was at Disputanta at the tracks during a storm and heard a siren. Kinda freaked me out too. It was the fire station
STH-10 has the same meaning to be loud!
I don't think its an STH-10, Sounds more like a 5 or a 7
That was a model 5/7. Also, did anyone hear the attack round getting cut off from the siren at 1:03?
Maybe a high voltage spike
Imagine if a train came the exact same time the siren went off

I just had that happen On President's Day, I recorded an STH-10, and NS M2Z (A 12Z Extra, Came through JUST AS THE STH-10 WAS ABOUT TO GO OFF for a Noon Blast)!
most of them have horns like trumpet sounds!
The siren is a Model 5 on the roof of the station.
***** sounds a little overpowered eh?
Was it ear-piercing from where you were? How many miles can this Model 5 be heard from, do you think? It is relatively low-mounted.
@ Jack Wood: It was pretty damn loud. I mean, it wasn't totally deafening, but it got my attention for sure! I don't know what the range would be. I'd say you could hear it from at least 2 miles. I've never heard it from Stony Creek, which is the next town south.
Really high tones model 5
Our fire dept used to use the siren now they just use pagers to get the volunteers to respond...
It does sound like a 2001. I don't know though because I didn't see the actual siren unit.
Sounds terrifying, Back in the 50's you'd have to go to a fallout shelter nearby.
That's a Model 5!
It sounds like a STH10 to me
That fire station seems to be located in the wrong location. If trucks are coming in the direction of the cameraman, there's a good chance they could be stopped by a train (that rail line is a mainline or at least a branchline that is used frequently, right?).
Model 5. Saw it in Google too.
Several fire companies in my area, including Milmont and Woodlyn (both part of Ridley Township FD), have the Model 5 as well.
Is the siren still there today?
I'm not sure but considering that the fire department moved to a new facility down the street, I'd say there's a good chance that it's gone, or at the very least disconnected. I'll see if I can take a peek next time I'm down there.
Could be a fedelcode model 5 house siren:-)
hot dang, that sucker's almost as high pitch as a 2001!
well it was a dam nice video picture and sound was nt bad either, where is this location and the train that goes thru is what railroad? i like trains and sirens..
@ ADRIAN JAY: Thanks for the compliment. This was taken with a Sony HX9V point and shoot camera. This line is owned by CSX and is part of the N. Bergen, NJ to Jacksonville, FL mainline. About 35-40 trains per day I guess. Pretty busy line.
STH-10. Sounds awesome!
That's the CSX N. Bergen, NJ to Jacksonville, FL mainline, called the A-Line due to its Atlantic Coast Line heritage. I'd say a good 30-35, maybe 40 trains per day use that line in a 24-hour period. It's pretty busy. And yes there's a chance that the fire trucks could be stopped by the train.
What siren is this
hi is the siren still in service at the fire station today? if so i wish to know if there is pagers to let the members know of an fire call thanks Johan
I'm assuming yes. To be honest though, I haven't heard it go off in a while.
cool thanks
Nice!
The siren is a Model 5/7
The siren had a hiccup
Its a STH10 siren
Agreed! Loud but awesome!
Hello mister are stupid head I hate you because I want you to show me a fat my name hang on I got this Just give her about it what’s my name
@Steve Andersen sounds like a federal signal model 7
How high up is it mounted, do you think? I'd say only about 10 - 15 feet.
Just about 12 feet
The Utah air raid siren is also I siren that I don’t know. It’s an STH-10. Its a Model 8.
Imagine people who don't know it's a volunteer fire siren and instead duck for cover lmao
I'm sure it's happened before lol
man a house in that area must be really cheap loud siren and train crossings that must suck
Not just a railroad crossing, but one that gets over 30 a day! And they just double tracked that section too, so they're probably expecting more train traffic too!
I would certainly live near that.
It’s not a Model 2 Or Model 7T
STH-10A on 240-250V on what may be open delta.
Model 5*
It is a black federal signal model 5
Sounds like a 2001
i am a huge siren fan
The used to be a housed model 5 or 7 near my grandma's apartment(It is actually a fallout shelter
It was really loud and high pitched! Made me jump when it started!
I like sirens.
Did you get the fire trucks leaving the station? Is it on another video?
Unfortunately I did not. Didn't see anything leave. Just got that extremely loud siren!
Class J Video Productions
Why was that vehicle rushing into the fire hall, then? Maybe it went off by mistake.
model 5
Great video
NOT an sth-10 ,Federal model 5 ,I was raised with that familiar sound.
It’s a Model 5
Model 5 or 7
Yep
The siren is a Federal Signal Model 5A High Powerd
I think it's a sth 10.
Question: Does someone trip the alarm or is it automatically tripped when a call comes in?
Wade Clark automatically tripped by radio signals and activation tones
Yes fire sirens are activated by radio tones, not manually.
Wade Clark there is a switch inside the fire house that they use for the test
It does sound like an STH-10 cuz it’s twelve Port
I looked at it on Google Earth, and it is a Model 5 siren
man that is loud i would jump out of my skin and run to the fire call fast
LoriLynn97 that's the idea
is this in Prince George county virginia
At that point it's in Prince George. The railroad crossing at Carson there is in Dinwiddie. There's a sign (you can see it by the power line pole on the right in the video) that says "ENTER PRINCE GEORGE CO LEAVE DINWIDDIE CO" and if you stand a certain way by the sign you can actually be in both counties. I've done it before and it's pretty wild.
My fire Dept. has an STH 10
Wow that's loud!!! Which siren is that?
I think it's a Federal Model 2? That or a 5. Whatever it was, it was LOUD! If you go on GoogleMaps StreetView, you can see it on the side of the building.
It's a Model 5. Model 2's are lower pitched.
+Class J Video Productions the siren is a STH-10
Incorrect, it's a Model 5. Street View doesn't lie.
It’s 12 port
these are still pissing me off after such a long time
Sounds like a nuclear meltdown
Haha kind of!
why are you in the railroadcrossing🚈🚉
It has been confirmed that it's actually a Federal Signal Model 5. If you go on Googlemaps Streetview, you can see it mounted on the right hand side of the building, towards the rear.
My local company has the exact same siren.
its ok don't worry i hate loud noises to i hear the siren to but you are right that thing is loud wow!!
sounds like a tornado warning...
+AJ Deere T680 It sounds EXACTLY like a tornado warning! But this isn't Tornado Alley, and it wasn't tornado season. :P
If it was it would be bad and u would hear 2 of them. The fire departement's and the real one!!
That is loud
That was loud, even by the computer
But now it is the siren itself with horns but never sounds it's 12 noon whistle
What state is that in
too bad my local department doesn't use theirs anymore.
MD88Pilot 🔫💰🔪🔌💳🚬💴🔥💪👙🔋💷🚪💉👸👙💃💪🔥💴🚬8w8w8w8w9w
Brandon Wilson Well that was unexpected.
that thing's hidden well actually
where was this video shot in
Carson VA
very good, can i take it for a mix ?
Kinda leaning towards Federal (Or Fedelcode) Model 7
Where is every one
Is this in New York
No. Virginia.
STH-10. a 2001 rotates.
Are you kidding me?! Does that go off on every call?
yes and its very useful
turtle derp I think you mean awful.
nealshireman i think you dont understand how it helps firefighters when they dont see their phone or pager go off but hear that
Paul Atherton I meant awful to live next to. Obviously not awful for people who live in fire country.
Yeah, but I'm sure after the 5 or 6th call that would get really annoying. What's the call volume there?
state?
what siren is it
Federal Sign & Signal Model 5.
Really? It was pretty loud. Surprised me when it went off. All was quiet, and that dang thing started screaming. Made me jump a little. ;)
Federal model 7
A Model 5 and a Model 7 Siren sound the same
Must have been a fire.
It’s A Modèle 7
Sounds like a Darley Utah Siren
THAT WAS LOUD!!!!!!
Yes it was! You should've heard it in real life!
JoeyMoore , WHAT ?!!!!!!!
The siren is a Signal Toned Model 5
that was super loud!!!!!!
+Arron Baddeley You should've been there! It was louder in person!
Even on the computer
