Federal Signal 2001-SRN Siren Test, Romeoville, IL, 1/7/2025
Siren information:
Type: 2001 Model SRN (DC)
Installed: 1990's or early 2000's. Refurbished and re-installed in 2014.
RPM: 2
Port Ratio: 12
Date: January 7th, 2025
Location: 14949 Lewis Dr, Romeoville, IL
Testing: First Tuesday of the month at 10:00 AM
Activation Time: 10:00
Cycle: 2-minute alert signal
Camera: Canon Powershot SX280HS
Secondary Camera: Samsung Galaxy S23 Smartphone integrated camera
Distance: 115 ft
Noteworthy information: This siren was removed and completely refurbished by Braniff Communications in 2014, hence why it has a Civil Defense logo on the rotator.
Happy New Year! It's been too long since I go out on a first Tuesday. Today, I decided to stay local and go to one of Romeoville's 2001s. Interestingly, this siren's location was not publicly known (in the siren community at least) until I found it in 2021. 4 years later, I figured it was time that this 2001 got some camera time. This one is hidden in the middle of a small neighborhood, so inevitably it was hard to find. It's a bit underpowered, and I heard a strange undertone coming from it towards the end of the test. But hey, it works, and it seems healthy for the most part. I'm a salty with the backlit shot, but this was the only place I could record from, and my camera didn't die in the cold, so it's not the end of the world. Thanks for watching!

It's been a while since I last recorded a siren, so I decided to record Purdue's sirens for their monthly test. Instead of filming from the ground, I filmed from the University Street Parking Garage like I did back in February. I didn't have my camera gear with me, so I had to film this one by hand. The test just so happened to land on the same day as the Purdue VS Northwestern football game (w...

Wow! I Love This SRN! Nice Video!
Federal signal 500😢
Thank See my video siren Roblox series
This 2001-DC has already aged with the sound it has.
@@Sirenfireproductions5209 It might just be underpowered. I seriously hope that it's not aged though
@thespiritstingray9359 It's not underpowered, might just be the motor aged.
The Romeoville toasters don't run at full volume for the tests. When I last talked to their police chief, they were run at around 1/4 volume, enough to make sure it works and nothing else. The 2001-SRN this replaced was internally rusted to heck and back, and that will become a problem in many other places going forward. Those sirens are near the end of their lifespans now.
sexy🔥
I thought they stopped putting those cold war era CD logos on sirens awhile ago. Was this 2001 custom ordered?
@@TheAustinSubRailfan Read the description please
That's a first or second gen. 130
@MRSWEATFN-o6d This is not a 2001-130. It is a 2001-SRN

Same pitch as the ones i usually record
Nice one, i wish more of these around here were recorded

You might see siren head
1003 Rotator box?
Yes, this thunderbolt was originally a 1003
This is a 1000? Might be able to take it
An example of sirens that can sound this alt wail Is the thunderbolt 1003A In the saint Paul Alt wail testing video tbh Thunderbolt alt wail Is pretty creepy infact it's normally what it's popular for it's odd broken sounds and it's weird dark design
Alright what the heck.. How does the siren fall down??
@@Thunderbolt_1003B Watch the video
Is siren head made out of Chicago sirens
@@Christian-dl7oh Not that I know of. From what I've read, he is made out of electrical components and covered in rotting flesh
Sleeper build
The sound when the siren fell got me dying 😂😂😂😂😂
the 4m was a downgrade ngl I wish it was 5m still
@@TheCasualSirenEnthusiast I agree. I bet something happened to the original blower though, there's no way they would swap it like that for no reason
Can I use this video please
@@Sd-10-siren How would you like to use it?
Are you the one that made the Illinois sirens map nor not? It seems private as of the time I posted this comment.
@@Wailer_ I did not make that map. It shouldn't be private though
It gets a second chance at sirencon!
Nothing actually happened. Nestor trolled me
@@GrifsProductions You're fired
I literally wont stop contacting the holy moly out of Chicago. I am going to keep trying!!
apparently this was a 500sh according to another siren enthusiast but it was turned to a 500at, it was rebuilt and tested, it was actually the 500at at sirencon 2024
@@youraveragepen-7481 This one was never a single toned version, it's always been a dual-toned version. You are correct, this one was refurbished and it made it to sirencon 2024.
@ well the same youtuber you mentioned, they have pictures where it was a 500sh on the label
@@youraveragepen-7481 Might have been a misprint. It's always been dual toned though
i hope it went somewhere and a collector or a small town got it, thing still at alot of life left, just needed alittle ppaint touch up
It was presumably scrapped
Wonder if the 2001-130 got put in this exact same place would love to see it face the brick wall like the Thunderbolt did
@garyhisgun192 It did not. It was placed on a different part of the roof
Is this a 6M?
@@GrifsProductions Yes, sutorbilt 6m with a 4-belt pulley
@@thespiritstingray9359 This is my chance to somehow reach out to Chicago!
@@GrifsProductions they won't answer. Good luck, but odds are, you won't get a reply
@@thespiritstingray9359is there a AR inside? Or was it in that control cabinet. Next to the RCM I saw some black plate
@@GrifsProductions The controls are completely gutted. There's nothing inside of them.
another perfectly good thunderbolt replaced by a crappy 2001, all because they want back up batteries and all that, i remember my city when i was a kid had 1 p50 and multiple 1000T's and one p15 eventually they all got replaced by 2001-130, whats funny today is tho they still have the rcm panel up, whats weird is my city managed to put a battery back up to the thunderbolts years before they replaced them with the 2001, not to mention non of them had any issues and would get new screen put on if the old on ripped and were taking care of, now the 2001 by my house just struggles or never goes off,
@@CooperJohnson01 I don't think battery backup is possible for thunderbolts. At least the 3-phase ones. As for this one, it was starting to show its age. The blower was replaced a few years before this recording, and you can see the head wobble from side to side. Besides, maintaining thunderbolts is a lot more expensive than maintaining 2001s. The situation you've described with your city is quite odd though. It could be a radio issue or the thing is really messed up.
Right as I get back from our dispatch center, lol. Good idea Ray, fond memories.
I could just imagine how loose that mounting brace would be like today. The 1000 in Lombard reminds me of this one alot. Great Tribute to this one Ray!
