Good train horns.

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

4007- No idea what this is, but it sure sounds nice. It looks like a Leslie, but sounds more like a less harsh version of a K3LA:

It is a K series horn, but with the bells arranged like a Leslie, with the center bell reversed.

Another earful of a great RS3LR on the WSOR, this time 4053 with the special "Grow Wisconsin" Map paint scheme. There's also a crossing with a dead bell in here:

Another catch of the daily WSOR freight from Madison to Janesville (which passes through McFarland, Stoughton, Edgerton and Milton), this time with 4006 and its K5LA:

There's something about the K3LA on BNSF SD75M #8212 that I can't describe.

I like the horn on BNSF AC44EV #5722:

It has a K5HL mounted identical to the one seen in this post:

You sure that's posted right? That horn didn't sound like it was doing too well to me. Maybe just my ears though.
