Mobil Directo & Model A Siren Tour - St. Charles, MO
Happened to be in the St. Louis area a couple of weeks ago, and I decided to make an impromptu side trip to see these two relics.
These sirens are a Biersach & Niedermeyer (B&N) Mobil Directo, and a Federal Sign & Signal Model A. Both are located at a former firehouse in St. Charles, MO at the corner of North 6th Street and Clark Street.
Both have been inactive for a long time now. Allegedly, the MD was struck by lightning and ran for over 30 minutes before it was disconnected for good.

Video taken on June 6, 2021 by a member of Yorkville Fire & Hose Company, showing their B&N (Biersach & Niedermeyer Co.) Mobil Directo sounding for an emergency call (in this case, an electrical fire). The siren was installed in 1965 to replace an older Darley omni-directional siren. The siren obviously rotates much faster than normal (since it was refurbished several years ago) but it still pa...

    You can tell the difference between 1000t and 1000at. •Check the rotator speed and the chopper level •The rotator speed is the difference. 1000t rotator speed: 2rpm 1000at rotator speed: 4rpm 1000t chopper level: 3 1000at chopper level: 5 The 1000at rotator box is shorter than 1000t rotator box

    • @CarLover310

      No 1000AT is 3 phase and 1000BT is single phase. 1000T is if we don't know if it's single or 3 phase.
