These are the Glen Cove. NY alarms from several years ago, the low ones being 2 Gamewell Type B diaphones and the higher ones are a pair of Cunningham diaphragms that have since been replaced.

The former high pitched Cunningham air horns at the firehouse weren't replaced. They were just removed. Glen Cove has had the Leslie SuperTyfon S-25's on Landing Road ever since the early 2000s

The siren heard in this video was probably one of Glen Cove's former Model 5/7s that were removed in the 2010s. Glen Cove nowadays only has 1 satellite siren located near Robert M. Finley Middle School which is a Model 7AT that was installed and refurbished in 2008
Sounds very similar to the horns the Fire Station in Rockland, Maine has (had?) Almost the exact same pitch and everything, too!! They use to do two blasts at noon, and one or 2 at 6pm - every day except weekends. They stopped using them completely sometime during the early 2000s. ...Which was a relief, because I hated it!
I’m not sure what type the higher pitched horn was, the the low pitched horns are 2 Diaphones with brass pistons.
