  • Amtrak 392 arrives at the Centralia, Illinois Amtrak station with my buddy Phil at the throttle. I enjoyed talking to Phil, thanks to him for the horn show! I look forward to seeing you again next time. Enjoy!

    When I was a little kid living with my grandmother, her house was less than 80’ from the C&EI tracks. When we heard a train coming we always ran out of the house and over by the tracks and waved. Not only did the engineers wave back, they threw little bags of candy to me and my sister as the trains went tearing past us. Even the guys in the caboose would wave.

    Why do US engineers horn so long at every railroad crossing? Are they obligated to do so? It's interegsting to me since in EU it is different due to noise regulations, though sometimes would be better to horn more frequently due to the lot of morons near the tracks.
