That is a Premier Hazard Optimax bar (code 3). It is a British bar.

The first picture is all PSE Code 3, the second is all Federal and the third is Whelen on the top with 2 Tomar bars on the bottom.
They are in chronological order top older, bottom more modern.

Nice job!!!
I even see some ROTA-BEAMs up there!

Real good collection, Jdh! I made a funny observation and saw that you have Mr. Fox hanging out on your older blue/blue Whelen bar .

Great eye candy you got there! I like your collection and I see some bars I wish I could own.

Very Nice! Great collection you have going.

Relinquish the Mars Bar and give it to me . . . : )

but give it to me, instead. lol! Looks like its in great shape!

Fantastic collection, with lots of nice pieces! Great job!

I also really love the old school boom box!

Very nice! Makes me salivate. You've got a great variety! The Unity Spitfires and the railroad flashers particularly drew my attention, too.

Simply awesome!!!!!! Thanks for sharing the pics...

I have a pair of railroad lights identical to those that I am looking to sell. I sent John a PM asking if it would be ok to list them on here but I haven't heard back from him s of yet.

This is a very very nice collection you have going, there. Just the type of lightbar collection I like!

I remember the red mirror beacon on the empty gray speaker housing. Some Canadian ships I worked on were fitted with these in red and blue for communication purpose in engine rooms and noisy areas.
Thanks for sharing the pictures!

Super nice collection, but where are the sirens??? Can't have a collection without some sound, you know

What are the two huge single-faced red lights?

Skip, I believe those are railroad flashers.

What's the setup on the Optimax? My local police used them with rotators and a 360* strobe in the outer domes, and a LED sign in the rear, on their crash investigation vans back in the early 1990s, on Toyota Taragos (Previas) of all things.

Very impressive collection. Lots of nice lightbars. Is that one with the unity spitfires an old Cook County Il. Lightbar?

Ok, you need to box that LP up and mail it too me!

Ok, you need to box that LP up and mail it too me! How much :P

It is a basic light. 4 rotators, front and rear wigs and a pair of alleys.

That is what I thought it was, however it is set up as a CAL configuration. The red sealed beams are a steady burn, and the rear amber flasher have a separate flasher in each housing.

the pair of RR crossing lights would look sweeeeeeeeeeeeet in my model train layout room .


Nice collection of eye candy also, mine will all be mounted.............eventually
