Train Horns: Train Talk Ep. 5

I wish I could use that horn to shut my neighbors dogs up.

THANKS TO YOU YOUNG MAN FOR SUCH A STORY AS THIS THEY SAY you learn something new everyday. AND THIS BEING OCT 20, 2022 I learned A GREAT DEAL. ROBBIE PHILADELPHIA PA FISHTOWN

The K5LA IS GREAT!!!

The whistle signals used are based on Morse code letters, and the signal for grade crossings is the letter Q.

I love the train horns, but it makes me sad to see all of the tracks being torn up, and converted into walk ways, when they should go back to the land owners...

Train sound of train horns, up lifts my spirit n carries my heart n mind away to where it may go. It's but a moment of peaceful thought , as I hear but faintly the last whistle blow away into the distance.

I like steam whistles more than air horns but I still like them

Experimental music

I love the P5 new cast that was the old cast

I hate train horns! But kids think train horns are cool

I wish raised letter K5LA’s didn’t sound so awful

How many trains are there equipped with the Nathan K5HL and Nathan K3L

I dislike quiet zones because I love Train Horns! I can agree that the K5LA Is a beautiful and a amazing horn, but if I had to go with my favorite, It would have to be the K5LLA because how low pitch it is, and its so soothing. They are great on ACe's like with Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern, and a few CSX units as well!

Living on the other side of the Pond I wish that UK trains had North American horns.

I hate these horns hurts my ears and hurts my brain

why are there 1 or 2 horns faces to the back

nice

One of my buddies put a real K5LA train horn on the spare tire part of his truck and messed with people for years

AMTRAK'S GE GENESIS P42DC DIESEL LOCOMOTIVES uses the blue Nathan AirChime K5LA Horn located on the roof of the diesel Locomotive while the Bell is located on the right side just 2 inches behind the cowcatcher of the diesel locomotive!!😊

Their are no Two Chime horns. Their is 1 chime, 3 chime, 4 chime, and 5 chime.

Also, I wonder what a 6 chyme or 7 chyme Air Horn would be like on a Diesel Locomotive.

The K5LA in the end literally sounds like Dash 8 509

Quite zones cause more deaths than non quite zones

Maybe you should do one on steam whistles.

A few years ago I moved houses. As a train ‘geek’, I was so excited that I was moving to a house relatively close to a mainline. However, a few weeks in, I noticed I wasn’t hearing horns- at all. That was when I realized I was in a quiet zone 😐😂

I like some horns

What is that song on the outro

Do a video on whistles.

Excellent explanation & examples! Thank you for this video, from which I learned a lot. Btw, your example of tuning, a B Major 6 chord, is first inversion, with the 3rd on the bottom. Neat sound. I once heard a coal train go thru our town, with its horn sounding a beautiful 9/6 chord!
