    Haul of Fed Sig and Fed Sig Vama (Spain) NOS

    Not sure about numbles! There's a traffic clearing light in the middle (is that the right name? Federal's version of the Oscilaser) I agree - I think the blue is too dark. The light is almost purple. I prefer the lighter blue. The only vintage thing is the Jetstrobe - but that's safely tucked...

    Vintage Frankenstein-ed lights, beacons and light bars.

    It does work. But it's a stupid idea. Since when does an Edge bar need rotators?

    Vintage Frankenstein-ed lights, beacons and light bars.

    Found these whilst stripping down some of the used bars. These lightbars came from a Police Department and the changes were made whilst in service and retrofitted to new cars... Give them credit -  they used genuine Code 3 rotators!

    Unmarked Miami Police Car Responding

    Agree with all the comments about siren usage. When I was taught to drive response (Code 3) we were told that Wail was best for long, fast stretches of road because the sound travels further, then change to Yelp for junctions / intersections. The change of tone seems to attract driver's...

    Largest "OLD" Beacon?

    The Stemlight was used a lot in the UK because it didn't need a massive post fixing through the vehicle. This was one of the photos (credit to Paul78) I found on Flickr Range Rover by Paul '78, on Flickr

    My New German Hella RTK 4/6 Lightbars

    There is no pre-emption systems that I'm aware of in Europe. Certainly not in the UK. I was looking at these many years ago and I think they are a great concept. How well do they work in reality? Sorry to hi-jack your thread Eric

    New Federal Signal/Vama "Traffic Storm" LED lightbar with Message board.

    Hi. The flash pattern is actually double-flash but it's too quick for the camera. The rules are set down in ECE Regulation 65. It's not enforced in the UK, but it's very strictly enforced in Europe. All (well most) of Fed Sig Vama products meet the requirements, Woodway Engineering have...
