I was on TRE 1009 recently and the horn sounds so relaxing that you could fall asleep listening to it,which I briefly did while at Richland hills station.(it could also be that I was tired by that point in the day).
Really hot take, but I kinda like the K5-CA-LS, for two reasons: One, the horn is a two-volume horn so that's neat, and two, when it's not sounding all 5 bells it makes a really nice horn chord, the K1L13 is a great horn and that's what K5-CA-LS horns sound like when not in Emergency Mode.
The K5CA has grown on me a little bit, but not that much. I can at least admit that an average K5CA is better than some of the very worst K5LAs. If I remade this video now, Coaster 2301 would be uncannier than the K5CAs.
There’s a video about some RUclipsr at the Stuart mesa yard north of Oceanside and he saw almost completed overhauled cab car 2304 so that means 2304 will not have its K5CA anymore EDIT 2304 still has its K5CA horn
@@SEFlorida Ouch. Talk about a bad move. I mean why not have a maintenance hatch in order to work on these horns instead of welding them shut, am I right?
I love ACE 3307’s K5LA, I just love hearing ACE’s horns from a distance and also Caltrains P2 horns, sadly we won’t hear them anymore in the Peninsula since they’re going to retire, the only way I’m going to hear them again is up south of San Jose, love 115,120,and 113
I have never experienced this level of canny before! Personally, I would have had NCTD 2303 and 2306's old horns from 2008-2009 in there at some point, the quill on those horns will never be beaten in my opinion (2303's was so unique, since it lost that horn, it has consistently been one of the worst in the fleet).
SO, first of all, the clip shown of the K5CA-LS is when its blown with all the air it can take, but if you search up Series IX ACE testing, theres one vid where the horn sounds phenominal, to me at least. also, the clips of Caltrain 119 and 120 sound like ass, and so does the UTA.
The reason the GO Transit cab car horns sound good is because they're original Corker K5LAs, they're tuned specifically to how Robert Swanson wanted them to sound, any sandcast horn had the same thing. Raised letter killed his dream sadly.
There may be some K5LAs better then GO Transit ones, but because they had so many cabs there was basically loads of amazing sounding K5LA's instead of just a few
I doubt the coaster cem cab cars will have K5CA because coasters main focus is on raised letter K5LA because recently 2306 got a raised letter K5LA when it got overhauled and returned to service
They have K5CAs. I can tell from the photos of them. And as you may know, Alstom actually forces all their CEM Cabs to have K5CAs, and the railroads are not allowed to replace them with anything else.
Tri-Rail K5LA's sounded so good
Especially "501" and "507"

There’s just something I love about 2301’s K5LA.
It’s always been my favorite. To me it’s super cheerful and squeaky, I’ve always loved it
2301 sounds ok
I used to ride UTA Frontrunner regularly and I can count the number of times I’ve heard its horns on one hand. Most of the line is a quiet zone.
I definitely love the old GO cab cars. Especially 202. I also love Tri-Rail 507. 🙂
507’s decent, 501’s better

Imagine Hearing a K5CA-LS Horn at 3am: 0:29
And now imagine hearing it in the middle of nowhere, no cars, no obnoxious neighbors, and it’s all quiet only to have that horn to break the silence.
I love 2301's horn.
rail runner has some of the best K5LAs
Didn’t expect this to be extended canny with some uncanny sprinkled here in there lol
Update as of September 2023 the coaster cem cab cars are still at alstoms bombardier factory
Hearing the og Mbta screamer is one of the greatest k5las
I like those bombardier bi-level cab cars.
1:51 2008's horn sounds perfect for that variation. It sounds just like it, I can't tell what 2008's horn is!
a messed up P3 because sunrail thought it was a good idea to make the horns quieter and foul them by putting them in metal boxes

Omg so Beautiful horns 😭😭😭😭😭🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
507 🔛🔝
I know that the coaster cems have K5CA horns well Colin told me on one of his cem cab car video saying it will have a raised letter K5LA
The K5CA may sound ugly but it's very important here's how:
The horns are supposed to high alert the people that there's a train coming from far away

Also are all those canny phases after phase 11 new or something because I haven’t seen them before?
Out of all the bombardier raised letter K5LAs on northstar and coaster which one is your favorite
The NorthStar ones are all mediocre. The best ones on Coaster are 2307 and 2310.
R.I.P coaster 2305 😢
Why is the metrolink p2 first, metrolink P2’s are awesome!
In my opinion, I don't think they're bad, but they're just not that amazing. And even if I liked P2s more, Caltrain's are still far superior.

Can we have some for like single level cab cars? Like NJT Mbta and a lot more
They're not as good in my eyes because so many of the Railroads around the Northeast that have Single Level Cab Cars have Horn Restrictors.
@@superbaddy4 it would be good to have the single levels to have a spot light
I was born in the Northeast, so I was raised to some certain Single Level Cab Cars.

Is tri rail 506 ex go transit? I saw that thing in Dec 2022 and it has an amazing K5
Despite the paint scheme they all have underneath their wraps, none of Tri-Rail's Cabs or Coaches ever ran for GO Transit.

No it's not. None of Tri-Rail's Cab Cars are. 502 just has a somewhat differently tuned K5LA.
