Day Tripping Adventurer is a channel that wants to inspire people to get out and explore the world around them one day trip at a time.
More than a tour guide, the channel's intent is to help people discover local day trips, and absorb local culture and history in ways they may have never before considered.
Hi, I am a super super big fan of these walks. Its been 6 months and I am getting kinda worried!! I don't know if maybe you lost access to your RU-vid channel but your videos are really amazing!! Pleaseeeee post soooon
Hey. Thank you for the support! Rest assured I have not stopped going on the walks, just a big life change has taken place this year which has had a major affect on the time I can put into these videos. I'm hoping to have the next one soon.
@@DayTrippingAdventurer Yeah I remember last year or so I could do more if you know what I mean. This year it either seems stuff goes by SO fast or I am just to busy to do some certain things. But again, your videos are truly amazing! I am in the Illinois and don't have all these cool cold war sirens. I have always wanted to visit California.
Hoped no one would noticed, but it's motivating to know that you do. Work and life has just been needing a lot of TLC recently. I did a walk recently that I still need to edit when I get my computer set again, so more videos will be coming shortly.
9:26 both tones would have come out of the top horn. Some sound also comes out of the bottom horn due to the pressure changes caused by the rotor chopping air into sound.
The last one is almost hidden away I love these Air rais sirens as growing up they were subtle reminders of a time before I was boen snd most hardly know they're there. 😢
france has some cool sirens, sounds like silent hill doesn't it? Other countries you can hear monthly siren tests: Germany, Austria, USA, Switzerland, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and i believe new zealand tests their tsunami sirens but it doesn't sound like air raid sirens it sounds a little different. But if you live by any fire stations they have an air raid siren usually for fire brigades. And any fire station tests their fire brigade siren at 12:00 i think monthly. Serbia has siren tests once a month, Croatia as well, Romania, etc. Israel well, they go off pretty much every single day multiple times a day for the last god knows how long because of the gaza and israel/palestine and israel war. it's been happening for years. But israel sounds their sirens 3 times a year for yom hashoah and yom hazikaron. Once for 2 minutes on yom hashoah which is holocaust rememberance day, and twice on yom hazikaron which is the actual rememberance day (one at 8pm sunday evening for one minute and one on monday morning at 10am for two minutes.) During these times everyone has to stop driving and get out of their cars and stand quietly and remember the ones who died in the holocaust, everyone has to stop. Like everybody even if you're walking. If you get caught not doing so, you'll get in trouble. And of course, Ukraine. Air raid sirens sound multiple times throughout the day for the last 2 years because of the russo-ukrainian war, which actually started in 2014, they have been fine for years and then February 2022 came and it started again this time worse than ever. Russia also tests their siren alert system monthly. Here in BC canada we don't have air raid sirens. However Vancouver used to, but unfortunately most were taken down but some are still left up but are inactive. The only thing we get monthly is the monthly nationwide alert test on our phones and stuff.
There's an insanely rare siren that you should see one day, the EOWS-408, it's all the way in Herrin, Illinois there is 3 left standing in the USA, in Herrin, I got a video of one, they look absolutely incredible.
I am glad you explained how they straightened Spring Street. I have seen many early photos taken from this corner and seeing the curve in the street bugged and confused me.
Los Angeles had city street cars ( Los Angeles Railroad which in 1944 became Los Angeles Transit Line until 1963 ) and also interurbans which were operated by the Pacific Electric ( the Red cars ). I believe that tower was manned and served as a sort of traffic signal for the rail cars which converged at that intersection.
Honestly probably wouldn't be difficult to get working again, looks like it just uses an Onan BF engine which isn't too tricky to get parts for. If the motor is totally trashed from sitting for years there are still many Onan BF series engines around to replace it with.
