[@SharkytheGunzel]

That is because this type of loco have Leslie RS5T

[@m3nathan]

I cannot believe it's taken me so long to see this video, top job cobber, lots of great horns and styles on the valves

[@Shitphototaker69]

2011 seems to long ago back in the good old days of Hitachis

[@NorCaliRailroading2023]

Those Leslie are the best!

[@pokeyrailfanning]

I like how Australia uses the Leslie RS5T one of the most beautiful American horns but my personal favorite is the K5LLA.

[@lachlanbaker2031]

There are no Australian locomotives fitted (full time) with a K5LA

[@SilverThunder710]

Horns in order of first appearance: MKT-75, RS5T, P5, S5T, AA2, RVB 3 Chime, VLocity Hi-Chime, Siemens Air horn, K2

[@SharkytheGunzel]

@wendyt234 it's the Tocumwal Line. Goods only. the shot was taken in Numurkah

[@MTG_7777]

I love how all of these are recorded in Melbourne

[@trainco1643]

The Pacific National A class had some of the best horns 🙌

[@mathwa12062]

As an American, I'm used to K5Ls and K5LAs but these sound cool!

[@SharkytheGunzel]

Yeah. I quite like the variety we get here :)

[@mathwa12062]

SharkytheGunzel hey, what is the train at 0:12

[@SharkytheGunzel]

The Locos are NSWGR 45 & 44 Class. Hauling the Southern Aurora, which used to be a Daily Train that ran between Melbourne & Sydney. The service no longer runs having stopped in the late 80s. It now only runs once or twice a year for special events.

[@mathwa12062]

SharkytheGunzel also what is the horn at 0:52 I like how it fades

[@SharkytheGunzel]

Nathan P5 Horns. The change in tone is the driver changing between the horns on the short and long end.

[@JakobHill]

What's the horn at 0:12? It sounds like the default Australian horn in Trainz.

[@DomQuartuccio]

+Jakob Hill It is

[@RoseSupreme]

That's where that Trainz horn came from.

[@danthefryingpan963]

Thats because its a real train horn. Haha

[@HybridBell]

Westinghouse A B two chime horn. The 'A' chime is 12 inches long, and the 'B' chime is 16 inches long. It plays a Perfect 4th Interval chord.

[@HybridBell]

When in tune it plays a perfect 4th. Unfortunately none of our Australian horns are reliable. RVB’s and Wabco A B’s have developed an infinite amount of dialects.

[@ThatOneMichiganRailfan]

1:56 Horn used in Roblox Rails Unlimited!

[@abarcamary35]

0:12 I know it’s Australian horn but what locomotive is the horn

[@GoldM4official]

N.S.W.G.R 45 class

[@voidjavelin23]

the ALCo/A.E goodwin RSD 20 or better known as the NSWGR 45 class

[@SharkytheGunzel]

@captainkmanOFP857 yes they do :)

[@66secularist]

Way to annoy hell out of the local residents with that last one.

[@AmericanSirenProductions]

Rod A welp shouldn’t have moved that close to the tracks lol

[@fnafandtrains6308]

Australias trains have awesome horns

[@brettb-h2831]

A symphony of music

[@SharkytheGunzel]

That is a NSWGR 45 Class. Preserved in New South Wales Government Railway's Indian Red. Was being used on a Heritage Train

[@theartoftimelapsemore424]

1:01 It's like saying, "GET THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY!!!!"

[@SharkytheGunzel]

That would be because all the notes on our horns face forward. :)

[@oregonwesternrailroadprodu5239]

1:24 is it just me or dose that sound like the reading and blue mountain gp30 from choo choo trains up close and personal

[@nathanielgenthner3272]

1:37 am i the only one who thinks that sounded like a cat?

[@STYtrainspotter2007]

RVB 3 chime horn probably the 80s version when they got it

[@lornawhite7087]

good but nothing beats the sound of the Steam Locomotives R761-R711

[@SharkytheGunzel]

I don't know, I quite like the sound of some diesels ;)

[@SharkytheGunzel]

@wendyt234 that was last years Melbourne Cup Southern Aurora.

[@SharkytheGunzel]

@vlpN460 thanks :)

[@pnwferry-nerd2486]

a lot of RS5T's, i love it, and P5's

[@SharkytheGunzel]

@SegaMario maybe they recorded it off this loco or one with the same set of horns

[@shanewalters4171]

I find it odd that the Australian trains only blow their horns once or twice at crossings or wherever they are whilst in the US, our horns blow 4 times. I'm not sure why, what's the big difference between the horn patterns?

[@SharkytheGunzel]

Not sure. It's just how the rules were written

[@shanewalters4171]

@@SharkytheGunzel true, very true, same with Britain and other countires but that doesn't matter, rules are rules

What a nice variety of horns. 0:57 is that X37? Because i heard it got preserved in 2017 by SRHC and is currently stored awaiting operational restoration.
