1966 Federal Sign & Signal 1003, post-maintenance test.
Ғылым және технология
And there we go! Almost 100% perfect.
This video was taken after some much-needed maintenance on the blower was conducted. The oil was changed in the compressor, the grease points on the blower and motor were filled, the belts were changed, and of course, the wires were switched around.

Man that’s wild. Saint Paul is really getting back on track with this thing, it sounds fantastic. Great job.

Same here. Just a few small fixes up on the head, and it should be 100% good to go
But atleast we know she's getting way better!
I think the blower is separate by the thunderbolt 1003a
wow! sounds interesting since the blower was fixed! doesn't sound as eerie but that's alright since it's much more effective now.
Yay the old thunderbolt is back i missed this thunderbolt so much

It's specifically designed for this job. It's a Valley-Valmont steel pole, hollow for running the air and wiring through. Heck, it's only been up for over 50 years, hasn't tipped yet. Kinda doubt it will any time soon.
