the winding down gives me serious goosebumps

Awesome siren

MY EARS!!!!!!!

Looks like Gaza…

I don't remember this but I remember some of the things that were done during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Evacuation routes were designated and printed in the paper. Our family was to head north on 14 Street NW which was a gravel road. Students has to time themselves as they ran home to supposedly join family and evacuate - we had to provide the time it took to run from the school to our homes. There was a lot of programming on TV about the danger and the possible direction that the crisis could go. Calgary was a lot smaller then and I don't know how Calgary would be evacuated now given the population.

12:14 If a picture tells a thousand words, something tells me they don’t “like the meals just fine”. Those scowls and faces of uncertainty paint a picture of what the heck am I putting down my gullet here” 😂😂😂😂

These things run on 550 volts three phase?

omg

Sounds identical to the 20/24 port Carter siren

The sideways hornless 3T22😁

The sideways 3T22😁

Well let's help

Sounds like a 3T22

A carter siren

Canada EAS alarm alt

where can a person buy parts ie brush holders

Judith. Our anti air raid siren is really something!!! paradoxically I hope it will never serve!

IMO It looks like a Federal XT22 on Steroids.

These CLM Rotational Sirens Should Restored And Remodeled And Repainted And Should Be Donated To Some Small Towns In United States For Severe Weather Safety

RIP Headphone users

It sounds like a 2t22

@ 7:19, where the temp/humidity recorder was located, there is another piece of equipment that was there but was removed by this time. It was the wind speed anemometer, and it is currently located and functioning - at the water treatment plant I work at a few km's away.

What I think most people don't realize, is this bunker, and many like it, were actually decoys! The real government continuity bunker is in Edmonton, just a few blocks from the legislature grounds. It is still there, and still active today. This bunker a CFB penhold was a "plausible target" The Russians new exactly where its location was, and what its function was, and therefore was a target. It is strategically located far enough away from the actual facility so that a "hit" would not damage the real one, as there isn't a bunker out there that can survive a direct nuclear strike, except maybe Cheyanne Mountain in Colorado, and even they don't think it would survive. This particular bunker was in no way hidden - you could see it plain as day from the highway, and could walk right up to the outer fence when it was in operation, without anyone even questioning you (I know, because I did it as a kid in the 70's - grew up right close by to it)

holy hell its loud

Lived in Alsask from 1965-1968 (ages 6-9). You really can't go home again. Because they removed the homes.

The philippines also have this

I know where I'm going during ww3

The most striking thing about this film is that a family with 5 children is being supported on a single income. That feels so weird to me as a millennial. It's also interesting to compare and contrast this film with USA civil defense films. Fascinating stuff.

Now that explains why they have the 12 port so dominant

Fascinating, and good quality for 70 years ago!

Holy shit that's loud

Are you the group with the truck with the air raid siren in the back of a pickup I see cruising around Edmonton now and then?

Id be flying an extra 10 hours of the sound wave. Yas

Excellent. Thanks for sharing.

Where did it come from?

I visited the Diefenbunker and can't believe anyone could actually live down there without losing their mind after a couple of days. The air-filtration was terrible, I can't guess what it would be like after you were sealed in for two weeks at full capacity.

I find it fascinating the similarities and differences between the civil defence preparations in different countries.

Even the paper said nope

Red deer TV did a walk around back in the day, maybe was on the cartoon network in 96 for a quick tour.. would be great to find that

Are these images or what

It’s so loud

That scared the shit out of me 😂

why cant you restore it and then put it back up there istad of junking it like its history

Nice I feel like having one

Did you know CLM stands for Canadian line manufacturing

Address to the former location?

Impressive. There are no civil defence measures in UK now for the general public. Not even any sirens. If there is a nuclear attack it is game over for most people, including myself.

Carter on 60hz

My dad worked there back in the early 90's we lived on the base. I remember exploring this place
