What exactly do I have? Federal signal corp.

Hoping to get some info on these horns. The tags say federal signal corp. The smaller one is definitely older. Both look like cast aluminum and are non-magnetic.

Small one is 3.5" dia., 7" long and says size 3M
Bigger one is 4.5" dia. 8" long and says size 4H

Just like the tag says… Federal Signal Horns.
They’re not train horns but should be very loud none the less. You can read more about them here:

Interesting

Is that good or bad interesting?

As in new & different. I learned a lil something.
Thanks for posting.

Yup. That’s where I know the name Federal Signal. I didn’t know they were into the horns posted above.
I grew up next to one of these:
