Rip that 3T22. Atleast it got to sound one last time before getting taken by the tornado. Pure dedication! It can still be used, but the horns are screwed.
@@bengalsfan04 Although both visually identical, The 3t22 came equipped with special valves in the top and bottom portions of the siren. These valves or "solenoids" can reciprocate open and closed to produce an alternating high and low tone similar to an old British police siren. This is usually reserved for fire calls or prison escapes. The 3t22 can also create a "pulse" signal which involves both of the aforementioned valves opening and shutting at the same time to produce a sound similar to a Morse dash. IIRC, the pulse signal warned people to expect Fallout from an atomic attack; Although I could have gotten British and American civil air raid procedures mixed up in that last one. The method to differentiate from the two is to look for small yellow boxes neat the top and bottom of the siren, those are the solenoid motors which indicates a 3t22. (Okay. no more edits, I swear.)
@@lilclacla1610 did you see that thing its smashed its not really vintage its just an old loud piece of scrap metal they have plenty of more out there in the world
I feel sorry for the 3T22 getting blown over, however it did warn people to take cover. That's all it matters. Edit: It's just a statement I guess. Edit 2: Guys, I'm just trying to say that the 3T22 was doing a good job protecting everyone, and that's what matters.
The city replaced it But on the bright side im pretty sure it went to a colector who sure cares about it more than the city Also glad the fireman is okay.
Good on him! Siren should get new horns and cones, and should be put back up! Maybe a new control box, having one where you have to hold the button isn't the best.

What's the difference between 2T22 and 3T22

@@Josh-le6lu yeah it's hard to tell the difference
Although the motor could be bent along with he motor shaft, and internals could be damaged too
im sure they arent going to use it sadly. Now most all citys are using 2001s, or electronic sirens.
God bless him. That’s a true serviceman
Ppl if you wanna know why people are all sad about the siren is because they got discontinued and are becoming rare
thx for context
because it was from about 1952. it was a 3t22
THANK YOU for your service! You are a TRUE hero! ‘M certainly glad you’re okay!
Everyone is talking about the siren but not the hero this man was.
Because the man didn't die
Damn a loud 3t22 siren destroyed. It was a good siren.
The tornado must had got mad and got it 😆
Poor 3T22
is no one gonna mention how he dealt with such deafening volumes of sound DIRECTLY BELOW it???
Ive been under a 2t22 (same as this siren but without solenoids) it really isn't that bad, in fact for me I enjoyed it.
idk. magic?
I mean, you cant really give a shit about how loud it is, WHEN THERE IS A TORNADO LIKE 5 BLOCKS AWAY FROM YOU, RIPPING HOUSES APART
This day in age, if the core of the siren is ok, someone could fabricate new body and horns
He should have that siren as a Medal of Honor or smth
Rip siren 😢 thank you
It's ok there is a lot of 3T22's and 2T22's everywhere
YOUR A HERO DUDE 👏 YOU SHOULD GET A MEDAL 🏅 FOR THIS
He deserves a valor medal for sure.
Despite the deplorable condition of the 3T22, there is a chance it could be refurbished, but the town will probably just get a new siren.
I hate it when they replace it instead of fixing it especially when Iran a vintage siren
it got replaced by a 2001 i heard

@@duckiesquad9 first off it’s just the horns that are smashed and just cause it want made in the 30s don’t mean it’s vintage

W That man and that 3T22 for still sounding the siren and the siren that still sounding until it collapsed.

Interesting how you care more for a siren than people
Well, if the siren was never cared for then a lot more people would have died

pretty sure all of the buttons/controls aside from the test button were not working and he was just holding the test button
@@a-person100 that's what I think, yeah
2T22 Tornado Siren 🇺🇸
It's a 3T22, if you look closely, you'll see the extra boxes/solenoids on the housing.
Good work to Mr hicks and the 3T22.
Rip siren..
I never knew sirens had buttons
They have a whole timer inside the cabinet on the pole with switches inside the do alert, wail, hi lo, or just test
