  • Here's my video of the last 500 in Topeka, the one on the VA hospital. They used to have 6 of these until they were slowly replaced over the past 20 years. The VA kept this siren up and bought a new radio for it when the new system went in, and thus it's still operational. It's one of the louder sirens I've heard, from over 1000 feet away it picked at my ears pretty well and the mic didn't really like it either. The rotator belts are stretched, thus no rotation. You can also hear hints of the Modulator that "replaced" it in the background.

    Yeah the modulators are cool, but nothing beats the sound and distance of these classic sirens. I still glance at the thunderbolt in Topeka city and wish I could see it operate once more.

      It’s been “replaced” ever since their new system went in. This siren is still on the roof of the hospital and still goes off weekly.

    These are fantastic sirens other then the poor design where the entire siren needs to be taken apart to fix the rotor. I believe it was you who said they're as loud as a Thunderbolt?

    I did a little snooping on google maps and, I came up with a theory.. Since Topeka had a total of four 500s, and replaced all but the one on the VA hospital, could that mean that the three in abilene KS could have been purchased from topekas old system? If you go to abilene on maps and go back in time, they actually had all sentrys instead of where the 500ATs are in 2008. (right before Topeka had replaced it's old system.) Just a thought but there is a very good chance it could be true. EDIT, sorry I thought there were only four 500s that had been in Topeka's system. Didn't look at your description before posting!
