Nathan Airchime K5LA Compilation (2017-2023)

A sequel of sorts to one of my most popular videos... featuring just about all the K5LA variants I've recorded on video since the last compilation.

[@quentinratliff6782]

The Norfolk Southern and CSX Railroads use that horn the most. The horn I grew up with.

[@F59PHI451Productions]

P5S are very common with ns also.

[@lizggil123]

What about Amtrak?

[@robrepass2179]

Amtrak used that beautiful sounding horn too

[@thedwaynerailfans]

u seem to have forgotten KCS has a bunch of K5LAs as well

[@IceFoxTrainSpotting]

1:58 *the ear Destroyer 9000* 5:44 *THAT MADE ME JUMP TOO!!*

[@RAtheGoodRailfanner_888]

2nd Gen K5las are my childhood..

[@RailfanKamryn1172]

1:03 talk about awesome power luck

[@LotusbandicootRR]

Yep, just wish it would've been light enough to see the front windows a little better! That was the only triclops I ever saw while NS had them

[@RailfanKamryn1172]

[@Traincraft101]

Nice compilation! It's crazy how much things have changed since 2017

[@Rdfj66]

Crazy enough the te33a built for Kyrgyzstan railways is actually equipped with a k5la

[@aircraftsandtrains2309]

[@MattTheUPRailfan2006]

Awesome horn complimation!💯

[@Laserman236]

Awesome Compilation! All of them sound great with the one at 6:40 being my favorite.

[@acnjenjoyer]

most of the power in this video has either been rebuilt or retired…

[@LotusbandicootRR]

Yep!! Makes me a little sad

[@kennyt1674]

Awsome!

[@Emdf40ph-2]

4:47 csx 99 y2k k5la 1st gen train is probably a AC44

[@alandvaemergencyresponses2883]

7:13 nice k5la on a yn2!

[@jamtuazon5216]

2:44 beautiful

[@BHV0810]

3rd gen is my favorite

[@SilverThunder710]

Raised Letter > Narrow Font Change my mind

[@LotusbandicootRR]

Nahhh, that NF nostalgia's got a brutal stranglehold on me 😂

[@SilverThunder710]

Opinion definitely respected @@LotusbandicootRR but there's something about the 3rd Gen that I love

[@LotusbandicootRR]

@@SilverThunder710 They're both great, probably my favorite of the more common horns out there. Any K5LA is a treat when I'm used to almost nothing but K5HLs nowadays

[@SilverThunder710]

You're gonna think I'm crazy but I'm starting to really like the 2015-2016 K5HLs that are on BNSF ET44s@@LotusbandicootRR

[@vikrad1800]

2:00 that kinda sounded more like a K5HL horn than a K5LAR24 horn

[@LotusbandicootRR]

Honestly, it could've been... hard for me to tell but I was kinda wondering while assembling this last night

[@Train43Kaleb]

They sound like ac44s

[@Stormchaser3030]

They are commonly used for Ac44’s. Mostly common onCSX and Norfolk southern Ac44’s

[@RailfannerJones]

4:51 Where was this taken?

[@LotusbandicootRR]
