BC Rail - K5H horn and Squamish ambience

Just coming into Squamish, this loud northbound, led by one of BC Rail's many signature Dash8-40CM's, makes its presence known as it sweeps past the brush beside the Mamquam channel bridge on its way to the yard. Filmed b/w 2002-04. Double Ditch Light Productions.

[@penguinmaster7]

whenever i hear a k5h horn, my mind trails to half life 2's trains in city 17.

[@Bneboy]

lol right?

[@floridianrailauto9032]

Imagine if the Razor Trains were actually BCR dash 8s?

[@ProvingBeatle16]

Considering Valve's HQ is located in Seattle which is not far from BC, it's more than likely that BC Rail was the origin of the sound.

[@connerrolofson1585]

ProvingBeatle16 pretty true

[@nottelling8129]

Floridian Rail & Auto that would be quite the plot twist, they’re just heavily armored BCR dash 8s, and the acoustics of the armor is why the horn is distorted.

[@Sunglass_Man]

This is the most iconic train horn ever!

[@Kvr3005]

This never gets old

[@MikeePomsticks]

0:17 the razor trains are coming

[@mrrandomguy5271]

Oh no the razor trains are comming

[@UCSPanther20]

I remember hearing these echoing horns around Lillooet in the late 1990s and early 2000s. I wish I was old enough to enjoy the era when the BCR was still fielding the MLW M630s...

[@AZ-2933]

(1:51) soo thats how scottspack got this horn from gmod

Long Live BC Rail's K5 Horn

[@trainbytrain]

[@djtrainman2]

I can hear a car horn at 1:40

[@Kvr3005]

pretty much all BCR unit had a K5H or a K5L horn , there slowley going away now.

[@teamdeer5117]

For anyone wondering, a lot of BCR locos were bought by Montana Rail Link.

[@erikhamilton982]

@@teamdeer5117 MRL Got some BC Rail units? When and what did they get?

[@norfolkdash9]

Wow what a great setting!

[@Mutnut333]

I used to walk over that very train bridge on my way to Stawamus Elementary for grade 7. My mother was unaware of my route over the bridge and through the sawmill yard...for a 12 year old girl walking alone that was fairly brazen. However, it did take 15 minutes off my travel time and it was thrilling planning on hiding behind the girders in case a train did approach and I had no escape. Exciting times!! Lol!! :)

[@charles8010]

Sweet horn,all my favourite and +5 ratring men,congratulation!!!

[@bcrcndr]

[@BNProductions-vy7mf]

@@spoiler539 yeah

[@cedricbethea2343]

[@indiantrains4156]

beautiful video with nice location :)

[@M_747]

nice video! the locomotive is scary when it's near

[@revolution1one]

BC RAIL had put double ditch lights on their engines because of the the valleys they ran on.

[@EdmontonRails]

Lol the little car horn, then the train blasts its horn

[@roachaximus5899]

This is the stock train horn for movies and video games. Its royalty free!

[@BNSFbeagrett9647]

SAWEEET!!!! I Love UP BNSF CSX ans NS but nothing can beat BC rail any day!! KEEP UP THE AWSOME VIDEOS! 5 stars and im subscribing!

[@SD70MAC]

Nice horn ;)

[@fnm9908]

cn had sd40f's and sd60f's from EMD,and bcrail got the 840cm's from GE,when both companies were still independent the 4 window wide cab design was a canadian signature for a long time,starting with the EMD GP40WL,and the MLW M series

[@juancarlos85i]

I like that horn for my car.... haha!!!

[@bIahaj]

ohgod the combine is coming

[@gordieparenteau6555]

1:20 That sound always makes me think of the Joe Thornton era Boston Bruins.

[@Wassenhoven420]

Whoa. Trains are fuckin trippy when you think about them. Such primal technologies in some ways, yet one of the biggest well known technologies on our planet. Also FEARSOME.

[@delmonteland]

because we wuv them more

[@RailfanAndy]

1:51 the roblox k5h

[@EMDFAN1988]

I do, A nice push a about a mile down the tracks by the locomotive >=)

[@EMDFAN1988]

Listen to that horn crank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@EscapesAndRemoves]

Imagine hearing that horn at 1am

[@spoiler539]

I’d love it.

[@konomata]

i have that train on trainz 2009

[@LocalRailfan]

Not only was this K5H nice n' loud. But the engineer seemed to be pretty horn savvy

[@spoiler539]

I would have been too.

[@GalaxyQZ]

Thought it said sasquatch ambience 😂

[@TTGVP]

not to bad there bud :P

[@wctrain]

indeed

[@wctrain]

why does bc rail always order the same type of locomotives that cn rail does

[@TasteOfIrony]

Extra lighting. There's huge gaps of forest and mountain between stations, and lots of wildlife. Its just a precaution.

[@felixthetrainfan4819]

Btw what happened to BC Rail in BC? Is BC Rail Company still in business?

[@CalifornianRailfan]

no

[@DarwinMedina]

its me or its the train from the movie atomic train ? (the one who was chasing the runaway and then a crash happend)

[@floridianrailauto9032]

It is

[@christophercarey3232]

No, the engines in Atomic Train were MLW M420Ws.

[@BNProductions-vy7mf]

1:35 a scratch horn

[@atruerushfan]

click and drag the little circel that tells you what part of the movie you are in, and fast forward 0:04 - 1:56 you can watch the clouds move on the chief! (mountain in background)

[@SkyhawkACE123]

[@ieatass42069]

WOW! I think a deaf person could hear that! Cool vid

[@fredlohmann1448]

[@nottelling8129]

Audio quality and video quality are polar opposites in this video

Did you know that people with guilty consciences can be startled by loud noises- 2:00

[@nathanmahoney6346]

Unfortunately, CN is replacing these horns with whatever's lying around.
