Different Types Of Train Horns

[@TexasRailfan21-RailfanRyan]

2:19 that is by far the best Santa Fe war bonnet with the most healthiest original RS-3L horn I have ever seen and heard

[@F40M07]

10:51 a sound I’ll always remember

[@lizggil123]

Magic on a locomotive

[@Onkaparinga_Garb]

bro that RS3K gave me the chills and so did that OC P5

[@greaterhoustonrailfan]

14:31 I love that Doppler effect

My favorite is the k5la. My local short line has one with two of the bells reversed hand it has a much different sound, it is higher pitched and less smooth sounding. It is the best sound I’ve ever heard

[@blackbirdgaming8147]

Bells reversed? Sounds like it could be a K5LAR24

[@roberthunt1540]

You: Imma drive all over the country and record train horns. Me: Lemme grab my coat and hat! K5LA 1rst gen. was my favorite.

[@theoldbayrailfan]

K5lla is my favorite

[@michaelpadgett6153]

I like both!! Yes, I need it!

[@AGTCRailroader]

I like the 3rd gen k5hl, new cast p5, old cast p5 and the 1st gen k5hl.

[@LOCAL_GHOST6]

I miss hearing the sounds of train horns passing by,I used to get excited,but now I barely hear them ;-(

[@rogersledz6793]

GOOD DOPPLER SHIFT EXAMPLE Horn goes from higher pitch at 5:07 to slightly lower pitch at 5:12 as train passes camera. CAUSE Speed of train moving towards you adds to the speed of the horn's sound waves. Your ear hears more waves per second ( higher pitch ). Once train pass, its speed subtracts from speed of sound, so your ear hears less waves per second ( lower pitch ). TAP ON BLUE TIME LINKS MULTIPLE TIMES FOR MAX EFFECT.

HELL FUCKIN YEAH BROTHERR

[@SD60M]

I like the RS3K too. Its by far one of my most favorite horns outside of the Nathan K5LA

5:46, that horn belongs on that trailing unit!

[@GoldM4official]

It belongs on Aurizon Narrow gauge locomotives in WA

[@vikrad1800]

The RS3P sounds like a mix of an RS3L and RS5T

The K5H is my favourite train horn

[@JDA0826]

The horn on BNSF 2184, that horn is awesome. I heard this horn on CSX a couple of times.

Any k5la from any generation is awesome, P5s on IC are definitely awesome. Nice work on all that you collected.

[@sethw997]

K5LA and K3LA 1st generation have a nostalgic feel to them the way they fade off

The green BNSF trains have the best horns of all time

[@SilverThunder710]

My favorites are the RS3L, NCP5, 1st and 3rd Gen K5LLA, 1st Gen K5HL, Prime 920 (Both CEbA and BebA tunings), 3rd Gen K5LA and K3LA, K3HL, and both Canadian K3 and K5 variants

[@TD_loves_IANR]

Thanks so much for this!! I’m at a family member’s house near some railroad tracks and couldn’t identify one of the horns! It’s been a big help! Update: I keep hearing train horns as I’m in a busy area for the KCS so I’m saving this video to a playlist so I can use them to help me identify train horns. Thank you so much @BNSF2184

[@CNRailFan_Productions]

15:57 I've seen that Unit last year but it now has a New cast P3

[@DesertRailProductions]

I think we can all agree that SD70ACes only are proper with K5LLA or K5LA Horns.

[@ionfwyhu]

4:22, wait that's 2 days later when I was born lol

[@joelarturosanchezfavela6383]

If you can find a Prime 920, I think it’s on 1687 still. Legendary horn with one bell fouled

[@SensoryFlyer944]

The Prime 920 sounded familiar when I watched an FEC video on the EMD’s.

Never heard of an RS3P, are you sure its not a nathan on that BNSF Gevo? My fav horn is always gonna be the RS3L(R etc) because I grew up a few blocks from a Conrail secondary line. But the BN RS3K is certainly a very close second as I loved the BN as a kid too. This was a nice variety of horns.
