Good train horns.

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

This video is mentioned in another topic:

but I like the horn in in, because it sounds very mysterious and eerie until it reaches the crossing:

Wish I knew the number of that unit...

My favourite horn is a Leslie RS3L horn, found mainly on Conrail locomotives. I love the smoothness of it, tuned just right. THE VIDEO IS REALLY LOUD, SO WATCH YOUR VOLUME!!

Reminds me of WSOR 4008 and 4053.

NS 8803 has one of the best RS5Ts I've ever heard. The last clip in this movie really proves that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKO4sUSVLbk
