Well I guess I haven't been checking often enough. Nice job on finding it. You wouldn't happen to have the controller for it though, would ya? I actually contacted WSS back before I got the MC controller and they said they couldn't find it. Perhaps it got scrapped and used for parts? The Siratone controller I tried to get wouldn't work. So I chose a different controller which actually I didn't think was a different kind of controller. That is how I got to know what a MC controller is.
Thank you! I'm afraid they didn't have it at the time. Jeff told me it got reused and is still in service somewhere. I don't have room for it anywhere anyway. Right now I'm relying on old amplifiers and speakers. Fortunately WSS gave me some spare drivers, but the collector rings are shot.
Yeah, I can imagine. I remember back when the siren was in service, there were a lot of times that the siren wouldn't go off during a test and I even remember a long time ago, there was a time when I was there with my father to watch it go off and it went off for about 2 seconds and then it just stopped. We were pretty bummed out.
@@thoward575 This was originally using a Siratone Controller back then, a B Series Siratone as well. Originally Siren1000T was trying to hook up his MC to the 612 to get it to do Alternate Wail but unfortunately some of the amplifiers blew out causing it to malfunction during it's cycle. There is a plan however which I will not reveal but is in the works for new years eve.
How the heck did you manage to get hold of something that once stood in your town? That is both rare and epic! PS... Could you please take it out to the middle of nowhere and set it to do the chimes at max volume?
George Munks Fire alarms and trainspotting Thanks! I contacted the company that took it down, and they have a whole junkyard of sirens that they picked this one from. Also I'd love to do that!
This siren was the first video I watched to get interested in sirens your siren was a lot to me your siren is cool I like the you could maybe add a Bluetooth component inside of it like for like probably need one speaker or two but this siren got me interested into Sirens since 2007 to now 2017 your siren is a lot to get fans into sirens
Congrats on landing one of these systems. Sad to see them dissapeer one by one gradually DO u have a special place your are going to place it on the property. Hey some morning you should give the neighbors a Royal wakeup .. Maybe Jimi Hendrex Star spangled banner ! Seems fitting
Henry Lu yeah. The bolts holding the bars that hold the speakers together have completely broke in half and it’s taking a long time to put them back. They’re all slightly crooked
The amplifiers I used for it are designed for smaller speakers, and would tend to smoke when I had the volume on the siren too far up for too long. I’m looking for a new one that can handle the power better, but the siren itself is fine in the meantime
If ya'lls had an old EOWS on the roof of your home, what music would ya'lls be blasting off it? Personally I'd be playing Sweet Home Alabama, James Brown's "I feel good" or Chuck Mangione's "Feels so good".
Skywtaker Is here The Modulator II is still in production, and is one of Federal’s best selling units. The EOWS series was discontinued in the late 90’s, and was eventually replaced by the Modulator I series in 2006, released along side the 2001-130. In 2014, both the Modulator II and 508 were released, and are the current flagships of FS. The EOWS series is long out of date compared to Modulators. They are much easier to maintain, they don’t rotate, and they are easier to manufacture. The Modulator II is right up there with Whelen’s high end models when it comes to sound output
When I bought my Whelen from WSS, I think Jeff only charged me around 300ish dollars. I'm not sure why that cheap but sirens at WSS that you end up buying wouldn't be more then a grand. My guess is also depending on the condition of the sirens and products that are laying out in the yard. From what it seems, sirens at WSS for people to want to personally own seem to be good deals. If you were to buy a new siren from FS for example, it would cost at least over 30 grand.
arlingtontrainsweather124 thank you! I already restored it cosmetically. In a few weeks I'm going to tackle the insides and set it off the way it used to
How do you get one do have to wait until they uninstall it one day? what do you say to get one? And install one like a new one if you know what I mean ya know so you you don't have to wait for one to be uninstalled
Craig Wilson you can buy it off the pole on one condition: only if it is being removed, and you have enough money. I got mine from the back of the siren graveyard behind West Shore Services in Allendale, Michigan. I’d recommend contacting them if you want a siren. The president is very generous and easy to make deals with
Excuse me for pointing to the wrong side of the sidewalk. Also there is no Livonia county, this is the city of Livonia, in Wayne County. This is the correct location
also its a miracle that who ever set up the antenna made a error so it ran alt wail when it was intended to sound wail
I know right? And come on that’s just really cool! I’d call that a happy accident
A Miracle to any siren entusiast.
I live in a town called Livonia, and before I heard of Sheldon Park's EOWS I though it was coming HERE and got really excited.
This actually makes me giddy. To see a siren back in it's home place.
Love to see these people bringing these old legends and restoring them to it's former glory.
I am sooo happy seeing this back to his home!
I love DAT siren! 😭😆
this eows 612 can be used for outside partys or birthdays but not the normal voice plug the eows 612 computer plug to a siren and make music
Awe, don’t cry🤗

A year ago I was convinced it had been sent to a graveyard, so glad to see it again!
It has been years since there was footage of the great Federal Signal EOWS SiraTone 612 do its well known Westminster chimes! Amazing!
It isn’t SiraTone I thinks it’s an MC controller
@Eows 408 ok thx

Damn dude, that's awesome
Good you take the siren home
Sounds like a Hoover Alabama vortex doing alt wail
Because they both share a similar controller except the 612 was on a siratone i believe.
Good job o saving it! Greetings from Wichita Kansas!
That’s awesome!

Now
Thunderbolt 1000 O my who are you?

Henry Lu as Bob Ross would say, everyone deserves a friend
btw i found out one of the EOWS Speakers is a little bit crooked.
Henry Lu yeah. The bolts holding the bars that hold the speakers together have completely broke in half and it’s taking a long time to put them back. They’re all slightly crooked
Ok! thanks! i didn't really now.
i want it to come back
I love the SIRATONE EOWS 612. Wish I had one.
me too
IT'S BACK!!!
Welcome back at livonia, eows 612.
How many drivers are working/need to be replaced?
JMAN-Wisconsin Sirens & Signals 8 can work, another 4 need to be replaced
Follow The Flag Productions i thought an EOWS 612 has only six drivers
Skywtaker Is here nope. 12- 2 for each horn
Oh, no wonder it is called the "612" 6 horns, 12 drivers.
nascarsimracing1 mind blown
Imagine owning the siren that was recorded and is now the main sound for siren head
Just picture an onslaught of poorly typed references to siren head in the comments section of every video on it, that’s what it’s like
Cannonball Films crap I thought I would have been the first to notice lol never mind about my comment
@@NPminnetonkayou would need to take shifts deleting that shit
Best tornado siren anniversary!
2:36 I think that is the first time that specific 612 has done siratone chimes because that is a non siratone 612
It used to have SiraTone controls, but that’s still the first time it did chimes
@@NPminnetonka were you using a phone to do the chimes?
DiD tH3 ReSt0rAtI0n aCtUly Tak3 9 Years?
yes.
The 20th Century Limited I think it took that along for them to approve to put it back up

Yea
Awesome
Welcome home lil' bud
No Manz PiCcle I think lil is quite an understatement lol
Yes that is very true
Yup
why was it taken down anyway?

how much does this siren cost?
Was it west shore services that had the Sheldon park EOWS 612 siren
Charger vlogs correct
why did they take it down?
scary tone
burdofr not for me
IT'S ALLIIIVVVEEE!!!!
Didn't the 612 amps get damaged and was smoking? That's what I've heard so far.

Did they discontinue the EOWS 612 and the modulator

Welcome Home EOWS 612 🙂
Did the music get played through the siren
Sharon Doggett in a way. I simply held my ihome speaker where the drivers are supposed to go
when well you get like a control panel for it
I have, it’s still being worked on

Btw i cried tears of joy the firest time i saw this!

The 612 ran on alternate wail
