I'm always interested in hearing the different sounds! In The Netherlands we have a rather dull sound. But they are testing new sounds, more american :D

Here is the sound of today;

We have different sounds for the police, ambulance and firetruck, so people can recognize them. I never could but others can. Here are some of the police and firetrucks, ambulance sound is posted above;

Dutch firetrucks;

^^ I prefer the old Dutch sound to the new more American sound. I hate the sound of American sirens. Why would you want to be like America? :ohno:

Nice thread. I find this interesting cause when I was playing SC3000 years back the sirens of the Asian and European police station are different from the American one.

In HK, some emergency have either the American or European sound

I have to say having done a bit of searching now I much prefer the continental European sirens to the American/NZ/British sirens.

It's about time the Dutch switch to some real sirens. The ones they have now just sound like toys...

The two tone siren is still used on some smaller British police cars and vans, and many siren systems now offer a choice of siren.
