The ‘Road Clearer’ Siren Whistle
J Hudson & Co. have been making specialist whistles in England for over 150 years. The ACME siren began life as the ‘Cyclists Road Clearer’ in the 1880s.
Chater-Lea are delighted to have joined forces with J Hudson & Co. to create the ‘Chater-Lea Road Clearer’.
This unique whistle combines the peerless ACME siren with a beautifully machined solid brass case designed and manufactured by Chater-Lea here in the UK. The brass case directs the sound and adds character as a unique patina develops over the years!
