Louisville & Nashville Railroad Ran My B5 and it Rocked!!

[@ZillaJr2005]

I really like this thing. It doesn’t have that beastly bark of an M5 although it sings the same song, but it has that that sort of more mellow toned vibrato of a K5LA if you listen closely enough. Definitely an interesting and fantastic horn.

[@RobertValinsky]

That is one beautiful horn!! I would love to have one of those on my F350 super duty truck.

[@Professional_Idiot27]

it surprisingly fits that locomotive pretty good! i love the horn and how it’s a mixture between a P5 and a M5

[@DrummerForJesusSabianAAX]

Oh I know, that is such a pretty sound! I wonder if Nathan airchime could do this with the k series horns.

[@supertyfon1736]

Despite the flaws this horn had, it actually suits the locomotive quite well.

[@Always-on-it954]

Just have a cage protecting it, problem solved, then you can have Buell horns on.

[@COASTERFAN-sw9hj]

DAMN!!! she sounds just right with that horn.

[@lizggil123]

Sounds like a mix between a k5la and a new cast p5!

[@rsconover7957]

They should keep this horn on L&N 819!

[@thealmightydoge5653]

That's one mighty sounding beast!

[@ctrains5497]

11/10 horn right there.

[@MAGronemeyer]

Sounds right at home on that locomotive. That's where a train horn belongs!

[@CornerFieldHobbyRailfan]

Congrats!!! This sounds nice and sounds fantastic on an F unit. Reminds me of an M5. Also great video!!

[@TheHornKing]

Thanks!

[@CornerFieldHobbyRailfan]

@@TheHornKing Your welcome!!

[@TheAustinSubRailfan]

Danm that’s beautiful!

[@DrummerForJesusSabianAAX]

Oh yeah buddy! it's got that classic vintage sound to it! It fits that locomotive perfectly! You should totally do a paint job using this locomotives colors so it would look more fitting. But then again maybe some people like it the way it is, I can be an OCD priss a lot. Lol but really, to each their own.

[@cawalshx2]

Way Cool. Nothin like havin one of ya horns on a loco. Especaily on as beautiful as that. The engineer has his own unique song, you would know him anyware.

[@TheHornKing]

Thanks Chris!! I agree!! Going to try to get the S5D up there soon

[@cawalshx2]

@@TheHornKing Cant wait!!! See if ya can voice the chambers in progression like I did on my newest S-5D. Took a chunk of time but made it sweet.

[@RailsOfTheSouth]

Normal people: that's a buell Me: It's a long M5

[@rail.tennessee]

That thing sounded fantastic up there! Finishing up editing my clips, but a video will be up shortly! 😉😁

[@TheHornKing]

Thanks and looking forward to your video!

[@AirchimeLTDproductions174]

The B5 certainly sounds very much lovely being used for its intended purpose. This video allows the B5 to really shine in tone, sounds very very pretty! If Buell had strengthened bells of these horns and had they made it into revenue service it would've been interesting to see what different varieties of the B5 wouldve been casted. One thing that would be cool is to see a B5 with a bell reversal.

[@TheHornKing]

Thanks! And yes this horn paired up great with this F unit. They can be found out in the wild but it is very rare to hear one. Bell reversal would be a cool idea for this horn

[@amtrakproductions-mx9ib]

Maybe you should put the K7HLA on another locomotive

[@TheHornKing]

Iv thought about it!

[@amtrakproductions-mx9ib]

Maybe a mainline unit

[@ElliottWolcott]

Nice train video.

[@ImpyLane]

What is that cadence? The extra little blip after each long 😂 Also how to drain your main reservoir with this one easy trick

[@DAPchatt]

That’s my friend blowing it lol, that’s his sequnce

[@admydragon]

BWAAMP BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMP

[@thequalityrailfan2297]

GOD DAMN

[@barrioscorona215]

Beautiful!!....How did they go about asking you for your horn though?!

[@TheHornKing]

I know the owner. Probably be running several more of my horns in the future on that loco

[@erictravis5457]

Is by chance part of the Tennessee Central railway museum's locos and cars?

[@TheHornKing]

It is

[@brandtbecker1810]

Why does he keep adding extra "syllables" to the traditional Long-Long-Short-Long whistle sequence at grade crossings? I didn't care for that one bit. Please sound the horn correctly Casey Jones.

[@22racer61]

hold up, how did you get it up there?

[@TheHornKing]

Friends with the owner

[@ssvinya]

Those rails are excellently kept. Barely any clacking!
