Noon whistle in Tarrytown

Ойын-сауық

We are in front of quarters of Tarrytown Fire Department at 50 Main Street, where we see and hear the fire whistle as it gets tested at noon. The whistle originally came from a factory down by the Hudson River waterfront in town and originally ran on steam. It now runs on air and is controlled by the police department down the hill at Village Hall. This is the only place I know of where the fire whistle is actually a whistle, as opposed to a horn or siren. I am not sure who made the whistle. Enjoy the sound of it as it goes off. It's extremely loud, but has a pleasant tone. If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me. Comments are welcome. The video was taken on July 14th, 2015.

    Wonderful old U.W.M. vertical "Gong" whistle. Sounds like it might have clog bowl slots. I only hear one note instead of a two note harmony. I have one, a 12 inch diameter, 3 bell ( whistles ) with 3 inch pipesize inlet, the largest one they made. Listen to it and many others on my posting, Gong whistles.
