What companies do you know of that have a mechanical Federal Q siren?
So far I know E40/TL35, SQ18, L3, L4, L129, E250, TL111, Res3, Res4; what others do you know?
 
It's about time they start putting REAl sirens back on those trucks!  I know in gridlock traffic you can't do much, but at least they'll know your coming!!
 
All the new rigs have the EQ2B standard.

You will see less of the real Q's as rigs with them are getting replaced such as Lad 7.
 
I dont think some companys are liking the new siren , Ive seen 2 towers with the federal model 28 back on the brand new rigs with eq2b 54 truck and i forget the other

L-135/L-43  :eek:

I'm the impression that L-43 uses a different mechanical; it just doesn't quite sound like a Q, and they seem to use it pretty regularly  :-\
 
I decided I'd turn this into a sorta roster and see where it goes  ;D

Does E33 have a Q, or something like it.  I heard it a couple of years, I think it sounded like one.  but it wasnt an actual Q, it was smaller
