I went to a car show in La Verne, CA, which is about 40 miles East of Los Angeles but is still within Los Angeles County. But more exciting than the cars were two sirens that I had never noticed!
First one is a "naked" one mounted on the roof of the La Verne Fire & Police building at 3rd & C streets in La Verne. Then I found this T-bolt painted LA County Sheriff Green, and mounted on a pole in the back of the (RECENTLY ABANDONED!!!!!!) LA County Sheriff San Dimas substation. This is located at San Dimas Avenue at Bonita St. The siren is in the alley where you can walk right up to it (fenced though.) It seems to still be hooked up and has a power meter on it! Wonder if it still works??? An interesting thing is that the Sheriff green paint appears to be original because the remnants of the THUNDERBOLT decal is still on the blower box. If anyone in that area (Soundoff?) might get a chance on a business day, a visit to that old sheriffs office might be a good thing. It's definitely not occupied anymore as a regular station, but there is one car in the lot and there were lights on in there.
