    Conrail Shared Assets train WPMI-21 prepares to cross the Winchester and Western diamond in Vineland, NJ. Leading the train is a Conrail Quality GP40-2 #4428, now owned by CSXT. WPMI-21 was working in push-pull mode with CSXT GP40-2 #4412 pulling up the hind end of the train.
    #4428 still retains its Conrail-era Leslie RS3L horn above the cab.

    Now this is how a Leslie is supposed to sound!! Beautiful! Takes me back to just about every train that went through town when I was a kid before the NS takeover

    Those motorists are pretty ignorant to what is going on around them. It scares me to be on the road with people like that. If the flashing lights and a blaring horn are not enough to grab their attention I would hate to be stopped in front of them at a red light. Meanwhile, the rest of us pay higher insurance premiums after their stupidity catches up with them. Great video.

    The S3L, and later update, RS3L, was once the most common horn used on North American railroads. Since Leslie exited the horn business, they have become a rare treat, rapidly vanishing in a sea of K horns.

    • @sepa2401
      @sepa2401 Год назад +1

      The reason that the Nathan AirChime K series has become common place is reliability. The fact that the Leslie horn devision is owned by hornblasters certainly makes railroads want to stay away as well. Leslie RS horns are also terrible with maintenance and lack parts availability. I know you can confirm as you are a machinist for locomotive air horns.

      @@sepa2401 P horns, though not as loud, can sound very nice. Especially if you lower the pitch of the 3 bell to eliminate the discord (for NC P5 horns, or in the case of OC P horns if you flatten the 3 you create a more mellow A major 6th instead of the strident A major 7 th)

      @@b2major9th I agree. I have a New Cast P2A single chime with a damaged foot. It sounds really nice and mellow, probably because it is running single diaphragms. I do wonder how I could get the broken aluminum on the foot repaired though as it was drilled incorrectly by whoever had it last and it doesn't bolt to a P manifold.

    To each their own. The M5 was one of the Nathan horns I never really got to hear when I use to live by an active railroad, which was primarily GTW (now CN) trackage, though it had the occasional BN (still green at the time), as well as Conrail. Heard plenty of P5s, M3s, and before I moved, the K5LA, however.

    Nothing like the sound of a Leslie RS3L! People are so impatient. Even a single locomotive outweighs the heaviest of passenger vehicles and even semi's by tens of tons! People can't seem to grasp that, because they can't wait even 2 minutes. Remember, look, listen, and live!
