Richmond Pacific's Newest Diesel Locomotives, Great horns!

[@joeystrains.9316]

I can't identify horns yet, but that switchers horn crushed it! Good catch.

It’s a Nathan Airchime K3LA.

Nice catch. Great K3HA on that unit.

Thanks! New on the property. I didn't know what type of horn so thanks for letting me know.

Reading the thumbnail for some reason I thought it would be Richmond, VA, lol. I didn't even know there was a locomotive manufacturer in Knoxville. I'm assuming that's Knoxville, TN? If so, they had a long trip to get out there, didn't they. I wonder, when they deliver them if they run them under their own power there or do they load them up on something to bring them there? If one was the buyer by the time they drove them there you could say, hey, these things are used and already have over 3,000 miles on them, hehehe. I do know of Republic locomotives in South Carolina, but I think they only manufacture a switcher type locomotive.

Also, nice to see a railroad with a caboose that isn't all boarded over being used.

Hi, I understand they were taken in a BNSF train that came via Memphis but they were not under power. They came separately but only a couple weeks apart, I believe.

[@510trackside5]

We have a microwave in it, water cooler, small closet for storage, etc. We really just use it as a shoving platform, but it’s a luxury for sure

Just some yard locos

I think people like how they have something of a classic EMD look to them (although long) and they're not gensets.
