Nothing so grand unfortunately!
I've seen one of these turn up on the Antiques Road Trip, Flog It!, or something similar.
I don't know if they were sold off or whether the 'owner' acquired it by other means.
Powered sirens were in use at many locations and there was one on the top of the local authority building in the town centre nearby.
I happened to be walking past when they gave it a brief test some years ago.
The hairs on the back of my neck stood on end but nobody else took any notice.
