Aren't these horns twice as loud as the K5LA horns on amtrak trains or NJT trains? Never heard these LIRR diesal horns in person.
@Larry_PАй бұрын
Yea they are pretty dam loud when they are blown at full blast
@Spaceshotx7Ай бұрын
@@Larry_P Didn't they used to have K5LA horns? Why did the LIRR replace them with louder horns? Why do they have horns louder than the ones on the M3s, M7s, and M9s? Why couldn't they just used the same horns on the Diesel Locomotives that the EMUs use? The horns on the Current Locomotives are more suitable for use on Intermodel freight trains like CSX.
@Larry_PАй бұрын
Back when they were delivered into Service they had these older cast K5LAS that sounded very different than the K5LAS that some of the Locomotives have now. I am not sure they why replaced them with the K5LLS, K5LAS, K5LS, and K5LLAS. I know that the Long Island Railroad back in 2016 decided on Restricting most of their horns on the Dm30ac/De30ac Locomotives and that backfired greatly they got fined a lot of money per each horn that was Restricted they are loud because so people can hear them better cuz the Restricted Horns weren’t loud enough.
@Spaceshotx7Ай бұрын
@@Larry_P So they go replace the old K5LA horns with the louder K5LLA horns used on many newer freight locomotives. Aren't those horns way louder than the RS2M horns used on the cab cars and EMUs?
@Larry_PАй бұрын
From what I heard right is whenever one of the De30ac/Dm30ac locomotives horn something happens to it like it gets damaged, or starts to wear overtime they get replaced with a Brand new K5LLA horn out of the shops because they don’t make the K5LLS anymore

I saw this video in the sidebar (alongside something else I was watching), and had to take a look...so glad I did. Between 2020 and 2023, I lived in an apartment facing Nassau Interlocking, directly across from where the (new) G16 Substation now stands (the apartment building is visible -- in the background -- @15:35). In terms of "recording history", I could not have been better-situated. Throughout that 3-year period, I witnessed the massive changes made to Nassau Interlocking, in its entirety...the demolition of Substation 8 and the adjacent Nassau Tower...the construction -- "from the ground-up" -- of G16 Substation...the complete rebuilding of the physical plant with concrete-tied "track panels"...the list goes "on-and-on". Literally thousands of still photos, hours-and-hours of video...so much, I've had to store them on a portable hard drive! All of this action, all of these developments and changes literally "steps away" from where I lived! Your video was "quite the surprise", and much appreciated. 💓👌👍👍
@Larry_PАй бұрын
Oh wow that is very interesting thank you for sharing you're Story! Yea it is crazy how much the Mineola train station has changed. All of the crossings are now gone expect for the one around the curve heading up to the Oyster Bay branch. Also such a shame that the Nassau tower had to go as well it really symbolized Mineola train station for what it was. I hope to head back to Mineola again sometime in the future I would like to do a Evening Rush there.
@RobPryme2 ай бұрын
I moved to PA a decade ago, but these crossings were always my favorite to park by and watch. I'm gutted that they're not there anymore. I get why, of course, but there was such a great grouping of crossings here, and you rarely had to wait long to see one activate.

Hello there Rob thanks for commenting on the video that is cool that you moved to Pennsylvania I have went on vacation there believe it was Dutch County and I visited the Strasburg Railroad while I was there it was a great experience defiantly a whole different life style than Long Island. Oh and also I went to Dutch Wonderland the amusement park to had a lot of fun on the rides and rode the train that brings you around the park. Yea I am very sad that they had to remove the crossing gates I miss all of the horn action over there but like you said I understand why they had to do it.

Hey Gregory yep they have been running the 7-8 car double engine sets on my branch a lot more since late January I believe but it hasn’t been happening as much as it used to lately.

Hey Gregory hope all is well and thanks for watching man! Usually the most common reason they run Double Engines is due to when they have a cab car shortage so they just run a double ended set. Another reason I believe is in the winter they tend to run them in the winter a lot to something that has to do with the cab car as well but I am not so sure.
