Odd train horns

Can't have signals without railroads, so talk about your favorite locomotives, railroads and any other (non signal) railroad related stuff.

What do you guys make of this? Obviously not a standard GEVO horn. Almost sounds like a Nathan P-type.

Friggin' camera battery... :Censored:

Found another video:

But, until I get a good look at the horn itself, I will have no clue.

A little update on BNSF 7639.

I found out from someone on YouTube that it is a home-built Leslie that uses the RS 25, 37, & 55 bells.

Saw BNSF 5225 in person yesterday.

It was leading, but it was nowhere near a crossing, so I didn't hear it.
It still has its horn, however.

Here's a good RS3L from Crossingman18.



Reminds me of the Flagstaff area back in 1999.
