My favorite is the k5la. My local short line has one with two of the bells reversed hand it has a much different sound, it is higher pitched and less smooth sounding. It is the best sound I’ve ever heard
GOOD DOPPLER SHIFT EXAMPLE Horn goes from higher pitch at 5:07 to slightly lower pitch at 5:12 as train passes camera. CAUSE Speed of train moving towards you adds to the speed of the horn's sound waves. Your ear hears more waves per second ( higher pitch ). Once train pass, its speed subtracts from speed of sound, so your ear hears less waves per second ( lower pitch ). TAP ON BLUE TIME LINKS MULTIPLE TIMES FOR MAX EFFECT.
I 100 percent agree. If I were to have my own train than it would be that locomotive. It sounds like a perfect symphony that gives me the goosebumps. Legendary.
Thanks so much for this!! I’m at a family member’s house near some railroad tracks and couldn’t identify one of the horns! It’s been a big help! Update: I keep hearing train horns as I’m in a busy area for the KCS so I’m saving this video to a playlist so I can use them to help me identify train horns. Thank you so much @BNSF2184
0:34 These highway railroad crossings are the best! I have these in Train Simulator 2022 from the CN Yellowhead Pass route and in Trainz 2019 from Legacy of the BN V2 and some other dlc routes I think. Oh wait nvm these aren't the RXRs I was referring to.
My favorites are the RS3L, NCP5, 1st and 3rd Gen K5LLA, 1st Gen K5HL, Prime 920 (Both CEbA and BebA tunings), 3rd Gen K5LA and K3LA, K3HL, and both Canadian K3 and K5 variants
I appreciate this a ton because im trying yo find a horn for my N scale GP-60 SP if it gets sound I dont want the horn that comes on those because ive never heard it
Hey, great video! I didn't realise there were so many types in the US. I'm working on a video about how train horns are used here in Australia, and I need a couple of international examples - would you mind if I used one of the clips from this video? Would give your channel a plug at the end of course!
Never heard of an RS3P, are you sure its not a nathan on that BNSF Gevo? My fav horn is always gonna be the RS3L(R etc) because I grew up a few blocks from a Conrail secondary line. But the BN RS3K is certainly a very close second as I loved the BN as a kid too. This was a nice variety of horns.
Ha! SP 9401 tunnel motor. He and I are old friends. There's a T-2 on display at the CSRM. It's kind of weird to see what you made your money with sitting in a museum... Doesn't bode well for me, does it?
1st gen k5la (80's AMTRAK) New cast p5 the old Then new p3 then old then Rs5t, Rs3l The 2nd and 3rd gen K5lla And let's not forget the Nathan P012345 on the AMTRAK E60's
My favorite train horn on Union Pacific K5LLA K3HL K5HLA K3LA K3HA K3L and model Es44ac ET44AC SD70ace SD70AH SD70ACE-T4 Sd70M C44CM Ac4400CW Ac45ccte Union Pacific
2:19 that is by far the best Santa Fe war bonnet with the most healthiest original RS-3L horn I have ever seen and heard
bro that RS3K gave me the chills and so did that OC P5
10:51 a sound I’ll always remember
Magic on a locomotive
My favorite is the k5la. My local short line has one with two of the bells reversed hand it has a much different sound, it is higher pitched and less smooth sounding. It is the best sound I’ve ever heard
Bells reversed? Sounds like it could be a K5LAR24
14:31 I love that Doppler effect
Me too. Thats why i chose this clip.
What's A Doppler Effect?
@@ChristianNoel_Likes_Trains the way it sounds while passing
Awsome
@@greaterhoustonrailfan awsome
9:45 Beautiful sounding NF K5HL !!!
that first gen K3LA is golden, I’ve never heard a better K3LA tuning in my life
You: Imma drive all over the country and record train horns.
Me: Lemme grab my coat and hat!
K5LA 1rst gen. was my favorite.
K5lla is my favorite
I like both!! Yes, I need it!
I like the 3rd gen k5hl, new cast p5, old cast p5 and the 1st gen k5hl.
I agree. The 1st gen K5la is the definition of a train horn.
I like the RS3K too. Its by far one of my most favorite horns outside of the Nathan K5LA
i also subbed and turned on notifications
K5LA is boring
@@Nohab52offical sometimes it is. the old ones are dead
@@TheMilwaukeeRoad but I like they sound
Standard fare for BN units until the 1990s
who doesn't like trains is not human
Lol
I mean its peoples opinions not everyone likes trains

@@steamship999like what he said
that comment got me laughing *I like trains* :)
Any k5la from any generation is awesome, P5s on IC are definitely awesome. Nice work on all that you collected.
12:34 is the best horn ever
0:00 The RS5Ts are just amazing. It leaves me speechless when I hear those beast

I miss hearing the sounds of train horns passing by,I used to get excited,but now I barely hear them ;-(
14:00 this sounds insanely nice
K5LA First gen music to my ears
5:46, that horn belongs on that trailing unit!
It belongs on Aurizon Narrow gauge locomotives in WA
RS3Ls are absolute workhorses in my opinion
I agree
Same here
Did u mean power house ?
Question is there a lower tone one?
The K5H is my favourite train horn
The horn on BNSF 2184, that horn is awesome. I heard this horn on CSX a couple of times.
The RS3P sounds like a mix of an RS3L and RS5T
10:07 that Driver should be arrested for not waiting for the train to pass
0:34 These highway railroad crossings are the best! I have these in Train Simulator 2022 from the CN Yellowhead Pass route and in Trainz 2019 from Legacy of the BN V2 and some other dlc routes I think. Oh wait nvm these aren't the RXRs I was referring to.

CSX 16:35 Standard Cab
I like that you started with the RS5T. One of my personal favorite Leslie horns.
Right away at 0:01 as well!!! That sound is too funny!!
K5LA and K3LA 1st generation have a nostalgic feel to them the way they fade off
I love the RS3K. Make more of them!
RS5T’s are amazing
this was posted on my b-day!
I appreciate this a ton because im trying yo find a horn for my N scale GP-60 SP if it gets sound
I dont want the horn that comes on those because ive never heard it
P5s and P3s are some of my favorites!
Caught an RS3K heading south of MP 10.1 of the Seattle subdivision, probably gonna catch it again once it heads northbound next Saturday
btw it was a dash 9-44CW
I really like K5HL 2nd Gens Awesome video btw
(I can't decide if I like the K5HL 2nd or 3rd generation lol. I love them both)
15:57 I've seen that Unit last year but it now has a New cast P3
HOW ARE ALL OF YOUR SHOTS SO RARE!!!!!!!!!!
Old cast p5s sounds like a train horn from a southern railway sd40-2 horn
Favorite horns:
1.) K5LA
2.) RS3L
4.) K5LLA
5.) P5
6.) K5LLA (2nd generation)
7.) RS5T
8.) S3K
9.) P3
10.) Prime 920
"Hell yeah" ahh video
I think we can all agree that SD70ACes only are proper with K5LLA or K5LA Horns.
The Prime 920 sounded familiar when I watched an FEC video on the EMD’s.
The fact that 6920 has a RS5T kills me because SD60E air compressors have a history of killing train horns.
My favorite horns were definitely the New Cast P3, K5H, and K3H!
Fav horns are K3HL, K5LL, P01235 and K5ULAULS
My fav is K5LA👍👍😎😎
Sorry I much like M5-s not boring K5LA-s
O som é ótimo
K5LA is probably one of the worst and boring horns out therr

4:22, wait that's 2 days later when I was born lol
I like trains
The green BNSF trains have the best horns of all time
If you can find a Prime 920, I think it’s on 1687 still. Legendary horn with one bell fouled
Nice horn on the GP40 2LW

RS3K probably my favorite leslie now! All hail burlington northern green!
3:48 Prime 920 train horn sounds like a Leslie RS3L train horn.
Yep... Primes are basically Leslie knock offs
Actually sounds like an RS2M
@@TheMilwaukeeRoad it's fouled. Just like a lot of RS3Ls ...
It dose sound like a rs3l
@@TheMilwaukeeRoad What kind of horn is an RS2M?
5:44 Doesn't sunrail in Florida have this horn?
Damn a BNSF GP50 with Prime PM-990? Foamer moment
THE P3 WAS THE BEST 🤩❤️
I love RS5T horns. They are amazing
6:18 unpatched southern pacific!!!! Very rare!!!!
is that second one filmed in Davenport?
yep
My favorite horn on Union Pacific is K5LLA K5HL K3LA K3HL K3l K3H K5LA On SD70ACE-T4 SD70ace SD70AH SD70m AC44CWCTE ET44AC Es44ac C44CM AC45CCTE
5:04 to 14:31Pacitfic rail
that first clip with the horn far away sounded it was blowing in water lol
My local railroad uses the K5hl and k5la
Dang so many different kinds !!!
K5LA 1st gen is so good👌
My favorite by far is the old cast P5
I also love the first gen k5la horn
6:45 was an M3. Sounds like an old P3 but it isn’t.
Ha! SP 9401 tunnel motor. He and I are old friends. There's a T-2 on display at the CSRM. It's kind of weird to see what you made your money with sitting in a museum... Doesn't bode well for me, does it?
Dunno-
Hmm everybody (including me) likes the air chime k5la, I wonder if they studied sound Science in that chord
I heard a gevo eith a destroyed horn that almost sounded like a Sd70 horn
Rs3ks and rs2ms horns are my favorite
Epic rs3k
My favorite Train horn is the K5hl
K5LA 2nd generation really sounds like you should definitely get out of the way
a lot of BN Geeps and SDs had RS3Ks. is that why they’re the best to you?
That and they sound cool.. all except the ones foamers call "mutt RS3Ks" I hate those
@@BNSF2184 might I ask why though? They don’t sound too different.
@@BNSF2184 the high pitch Electronic railroad crossing bells are Siemens
11:15 nice horn
What about the Nathan K5H? That one is the most legendary horn
not a fan sounds boring and generic Always hated seeing csx c40s with em instead of K5LAs
The train at 10:54 sounded pretty funny😄😄😂
I love them all 😇😊
K5LA’s are my favourite
Personally I prefer the old casting P5 horns, especially if it's mounted on a highhood or any Southern power. 😉
1st gen k5la (80's AMTRAK)
New cast p5 the old
Then new p3 then old then
Rs5t, Rs3l
The 2nd and 3rd gen K5lla
And let's not forget the Nathan P012345 on the AMTRAK E60's
P01235***
Leslie RS5T is a beast
Tyler Mac he’s trying too get in that train
The NCP5 sounds like X31
This train at 11:25 looks like one from gta San Andreas
My favorite train horn is the k5lla
That good ol 1960 rs3k
BN didn’t exist until 1970. The RS3K happened almost 2 decades after the RS3L
The old cast p5 kinda sounded like a e60 Nathan P012345 horn even the Doppler sounds like one on an e60
6:50 overpressured bell
Always liked the fast ones
1:30 is the best by far
I love the RS3K.
