  • Update: This was replaced by a 2001-130 in April 2020.
    Siren: ACA P-50, 3 RPM, 470/705 Hz
    Town: Joliet, IL
    Location: Hosmer St. and Norley Ave.
    Test Time: 1st Tuesday of the month 10 AM
    Cycle: 1 minute of alert.
    Siren starts at 2:12.
    This is the April 2, 2013, test of the ACA P-50 located in a residential neighborhood in Joliet. Bill (amtrak3501) and I met up to do 2 P-50s in Joliet. He was one at Joliet West High School a couple miles to the southwest. Before the P-50 started up, you can hear Lockport's 2001s, Romeoville's 2001s (faintly), and an Exelon T-128 and P-50 (faintly).
    It's also rare that I show ambiance before a siren starts, but in this case, the other sirens kept going into when the P-50 started, so that's why there's a long delay until the P-50 actually starts.
    Another side note is that several years ago (when I was still little), this siren scared me to death when we were at a nearby relatives' house and the sirens went off for a tornado warning (I used to be very afraid of tornadoes, though to this day I still have never seen one in person.) That was probably 2003ish. Now, 10 years later, I film this siren with ease.
    Update: the current Google Earth imagery was taken the day of this test.

    Do you think the city will move this siren to a more open space away from the homes or were the homes built on the spot where the siren has stood for so many years

      They probably only feel the vibrations and think nothing of it, because they are probably deaf at this point.

    For some odd reason I don't care for the p-50 I like the new asc t-135 more but then again I love the cyclone... It's hard to explain lol great video though!!'n they should get rid of the 2001s and get t-128s or 135s
