After looking into this further, these effects are done by using fog effects that currently can't be done on the HD versions. With more decomp into that area it's possible the rendering API is capable of doing this effect, but I highly doubt that.
Setting this to low priority until the fog system is either overhauled back to how it was on Dreamcast, or It's found that this can be reacreated with the current system.
Replaying the DC version, I just remembered that the Flying Dog boss arena also shares the same red effect Iron Gate has.
Attempts have been made by Speeps to restore the original DC lighting to Iron Gate, but whilst the bluish fog has been modded back just fine, the red siren effect still hasn't been accurately restored. A similar green/red siren effect is also still missing from the guard robot in Egg Quarters.
A complete restoration of the Iron Gate and Egg Quarters lighting effects, that is also compatible with Egg's searchlight added to the GC version, I believe would be worth investigating (as would a permanent solution to Lost Colony's atmospheric lighting).
