They show up from time-to-time on eBay, however the prices have been ridiculous lately. You would be better off joining one of the Facebook groups (e. g. "train horn and whistles") and seeing if another collector has one to sell.

The crossing today is virtually the same as seen here. Only changes are the bells shown here, which were replaced with electronic ones in 2015. The A Frame “Wishbone” gate arms have also since been replaced. Recently, the closer signal’s far left light was hit by a truck or car and has been MIA. I have recorded this crossing on my channel

When these engines were new, a few engineers told me that they were told that these would replace the SD9's. SP bought them really heavy. The first order SD40's were 393,800 lbs. The first order of SD39's were 416,600 lbs and the second order, 5318-5325 were 409,900 lbs., crazy.

I don't have any specific examples of its use however it was commonly used on early first generation diesel switchers so it is quite plausible that it would have been used on the F-M H24-66. The H24-66 also commonly used Nathan chime horns, M3 and M5

Wow! Great footage for the time. I love the SP. The old EMD SD40-2. I grew up with them. I still think the low nose design was the best looking locomotive ever made. GP38’s were a great shorter version with only two-axle trucks. These things dominated the railroads from the 70’s through the early 90’s and this video brought back vivid memories from that time. Thank you. 😊

Thank you, thank you. This is the best audio sound I have heard here on KZbin of my generation of railfanning. The big 20 cylinder EMD whining/howling, and staccato bark/razor sharp exhaust of the GE combined working together. This was the sound I grew up to in railfanning, late 70s to early, early 90s. One of the best eras of railroading ever, the other was the steam era. Today's boring/lifeless crap can't compare. It was more than sound, even like this video . . . it was feeling it too. This video captures that awesome sound. Thank you again for sharing.
